I couldn't find a repro correct horn so I bought a used, rough shape one for $25. Even being marked OK, it did not work, but a multimeter across the terminals showed it had resistance. I drilled out the rivets and pulled it apart. It had water in it at some time and was corroded etc, but not terrible. I bead blasted it all and painted it. The chrome ring needed to be rechromed, but I painted it silver for now. Somehow remembered how it all went back together after cleaning the contact points out, and used screws to reassemble it. After some adjustments to the screw on the back, wow is it loud! My questions; is the mount correct? I had read that it should be mounted upwards instead of hanging down, and for sure it does block the airflow to the center head a lot, but it will not fit in the upwards position. Also, should the mount have sideways offset?
