I wanted to get the horn but I'm not sure where to get it. I went to SM of asia or whatever no luck but I didnt go to every store though. Are those horn compatible? Do you have to change the wiring or just the horn?

My best experience was 4 years ago. Driving an old Toyota Tamaraw FX with 10 passengers (2 infront, 8 in the back) trying to squeeze-in between crazy bus drivers in EDSA while heading to Megamall.. Loved it.. I miss honking at the pedestrians.. hahaha!!
here's a couple of pics for people who doesn't know the tamaraw.

I drive manual when I am in the philippines. I drive around Ilo Ilo City. I got a 2000 Honda Civic SiR - Passion Orange, that **** is hot. I bought it for 8 grand with 33k Kilometers on the engine. CD player doesn't work. After 8pm or so, there is NO ONE on the road....Its odd.
