A few people have them, me included. No clip though, sorry. They sound different, a little sharper.

Probably worth it if you're considering it and have money sitting around.

I had to partially take off the bumper to do the installation, but some have managed to do it without such maneuvers. I'm sure my limited selection of tools didn't help.

I got the Sports Horn. There is a big difference in sound between the sports horn and the stock horn. The sports horn has a much higher pitch to it. The sound of the sports horn kind of reminds me of one of those dinky little hand held air horns. For some reason the sports horn does not really sound any louder, just higher pitched. I am thinking about putting the stock horn back on, I liked the sound of it much better. I also have a set of the German Hella horns. Has anyone ever tried these?

I agree with alex, they are higher pitched, but I do like the sound, it is different.

I installed mine with the side markers and had the bumper off.

I can get a sound clip when I get home, but it will be a week or so....

I would get a Hella or a Fiam air horn. For some reason these are really popular in Asia (ie Hong Kong, Manila, Japan)

Yeah, that's because that's all they do in HONK, you need something that stands out. Me on the other hand, I have not honked the horn in the 3+ months I have had the sport horns except to show someone what it sounds like, if I lived in Taiwan I would use it 50 times a day.
