I am having a hard time looking for the stock horn in my Xb. Can anyone tell me where it is? I am trying to replace it with "louder" horn.
(i did search... but, there wasn't any topics that could help me with this...)

I hate my bB's dinky horn sound. And I always wanted those "Awooga" horns :)
My wife got me one of those this past Valentine's day. And I finally installed it last night.
Thanks Old Punk. Your guide helped me a lot.
Although... the bolts for Horns were useing 12MM sockets. Not 13MM.
Since the new horn is significantly bigger, I used the fron stock horn's place to mount it. I had to go to hardware store to buy bracelets I fabricated to mount it. Also, since it's so close to the radiator, I used Aluminum sheet to make a heat shield around the horn. And because there is plenty of room between the frame and the bumper, it fit without any problem.
And now, I have the awesome "Awooga" horns! I can't wait to have people doe something wrong in front of me.
My wife is already annoyed with the sound and regrets getting it for me. ha ha ha!
Yes, it's loud!

yeah. My friend and I were surprised that the stock horn is just two dinky bells. It's probably using high velocity ringing to generate the horn. No wonder it was so weak.
