Swapping car horn to 197 horn?

[lewlew12345]

I can't be the only one that thinks the horn on the Clio MK3 sounds sh*t and also very quiet. I've heard that the 197 horn sounds much better? Would it be a straight swap if I replaced my one?

Not worth the hassle IMO mate.

If it's that 'femme' don't use it & stick to the blind mans hand shake instead to alert people of your presence.

I'm asking because I nearly got taken out by a coach yesterday on a slip road onto the motoway. Think it's pretty pointless using the horn from how quiet it is. I'm not worried about the hassle, just want drivers to know I'm around lol.

Can't say it'd make a lot of difference on the horn you've got.

As a biker I would say read the road better & don't put yourself in that situation. No one ever likes hearing that though but it's the truth even if it's hard to do.
