Most people just lower the original horns down behind the bumper. Don't see the point in changing them as there only horns

Ive extended the wires on mine and moved them right down to beside the tow eyes.

If you extend the wires you can put them anywhere.

I did read somewhere someone wasnt happy with the sound of original ones, i not have problem with it though, do i need to remove or extend wires just to lower it to bumper/crash bar level ?

I just fitted some new horns, still too high pitched for my liking so I'm going to get a set of the PIAA Low Tone (400/500Hz Version).

Moving them is extremely easy, just undo a couple of bolts to get them off.

The stock wiring has a spade connection for the positive and the horn itself earths to the chassis, and as most aftermarket horns have both a positive and negative terminal, you will need to make a wire that has a spade terminal on one end, and an M6 ring connector on the other end to earth the horns to the fixing points. I also made some small brackets to mount them on because the new horns only came with straight mounts so would have fouled the crash bar.

See below, the OEM horn, the mount the new ones came with and then the new horns with my custom mounts...
