http://www.shop.com/op/~Nissan_Ques...7810?sourceid=3 ^ 2 horns $65.90 shipped. I didn't shop around, but felt this was decent. I installed these on my lunch break (well my bumper is off at the moment) http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...p/DSC08952.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...p/DSC08950.jpg don't mind all the other electrical stuff...it has nothing to do with the horns http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...p/DSC08957.jpg they both fit in the stock locations with the stock bumper cover. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...p/DSC08956.jpg Video's for sound Stock http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GKKrABd2GI Soccer Mom Upgrade http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps90hhActiA :suspect: :dunno: :rofl: I think I will be heard now!! |
Hehe - I pioneered this one :). I was wanting up upgrade the horns on my car, and one day realized that my wife's '95 Nissan Quest has some really decent sounding horns. Picked up both of them at the junkyard for like $2, put them on, good to go.
The '93-98 Nissan Quest and Mercury Villager are the same vehicle, there's usually a few at the junkyard, as they made a zillion of them. Most of them I've seen have already had the front bumper off - walk up, one 10mm bolt and one plug, and you have some horns. Never thought me buying a Nissan Quest would result in an FD mod :).

well then, thank you DaleClark ;)
If I didn't feel so damn busy all the time for no good reason, I should have made a trip to a local yard. |
Damn, sounds like a freakin BUS HAHA!
|
yes...the stockers are very wimpy in comparison, and probably get muffled more with the cover on. I remember being in the cabin and barely hearing the stockers over road noise...I think these are high enough pitch to be heard over anything out there :D
|
Good find... next trip to the junk yard I'll be looking for some :)
|
Damn those things sound loud!

^^ Which we need... I've had people try to run me off the road before (b/c they didn't see me or look close enough...)
|

^ Haha... I forgot about that!
|
I want to hear damian's setup. and see how he has everything plumbed.

^^^HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!! those incredible..... I started thinking the same thing after I bought my FD (horns sucked) and looked into doing the air horns but thought it was overkill, although hilarious, and I also couldnt figure out how to mount all the equiptment. That is some quality stuff...
Anyways, the quest horns sound like a good upgrade.... |
haahah sounds good
|
I ended up relocating the driver's side horn b/c it can be seen through the oil cooler opening with the 99 spec front bumper. Was able to mount them both using stock threaded bolt holes, and using stock wiring.
Let it be noted that in my recent thread with install pics, I made sure to give big Dale his due credit ;) |

Ok... I saw "Soccer Mom" and "Sound inside". I didn't know whether to click on it or to delete it! ;)
|
but didn't you see who posted it :p:
|
There are some MASSIVE horns at Advance Auto that I've been thinking about getting. I may do this tomorrow since the guy at the desk said I can bring'em back if I didn't like'em.
|
Def. sounds better!
|
i like the sound the VW horns make more specifically the jetta, not the new body but one generation older
|
Jettas blow goats. Garbage cars.
|
Hmmm...I did a similar upgrade last year, but may one-up Damian with the three horn deal they have. :D
