Horny help required please

i know there are a few of you out there who have changed to twin horns.
I've bought a set, and don't know how to fit them???

1) where is the original horn fitted?
2) do i need to take the bumper off??
3) or can i get to them by removing the engine tray??

Any assistance is very much appreciated
The car is a facelift 07 model 130PDi FR



Cheers......Stu

The horn is behind the lower grilles, you may need to remove the centre grille to change it (I did mine but it was so long ago I can't remember!) or you may get away with removing the NS one.

No bumper or undertray removal needed! :D

You say its easy... but removing the centre grill on a cupra bumper is a bumper-off job. Um guessing its tha same with the Facelft! Doh!

I need a new toot toot!

What horns have people fitted? Gave mine a blast when this dozy person decided they wanted to cut me up on a roundabout as they missed their junction and I was just embarrassed :redface:

I've fitted twin horns from an Alhambra, they are plug and play

you only need to remove the passenger side fog light surround (pop it off)

you will find it a bit of a tight fit, I know I did :p :p

Yep bumper off job on the cupra the horn will be positioned in the same place (n/s lower point on front pannel) but u might be able to worm your way around not taking the bumper off.
only takes 5 minuites to take her off and you can give the rads good wash down
the horn on my cupra is embarrasing how am i suppost to cause road rage with a horn like that!
