Horn?
i read a previous thread about adding air horns. Does anyone know a good site that sells these? Do all air horns sound the same? What do they sound like?
I want to replace my stock horn, so any ideas/tips would help me out

How easy is it to install an air horn?

where is the horn, anyway?
Wouldn't it be simpler to just find the OEM horn and
disconnect it, then use the wires for the new one?
I kinda tried looking under the hood for my horn today,
and I couldn't locate it. Can anybody point me to the
location of the horn on a P5?

The stock horn on the P5 is in front of the radiator, behind the bumper. You have to take off the top grille to get at it - you can see it a little bit behind the lower grille - I'll post some pics if I get the chance.
Hooking up to the stock horn wiring might not work with a "Pep Boyz" air horn - they've got there own wiring scheme, and the Pro (as most or all Mazdas) uses a one-wire hook up for the horn.
I plan on purchasing an air horn kit from Moss Motors soon. It's made for the Miata, and I had one on my '93. It's made for the one-wire hook up, just like the P5 has. I might have to dicker with the mounting brackets, but that shouldn't be too hard.
Awesome horns - really loud and somewhat high pitched. I can't wait to be scaring ****'s outta my way again - driving in Manhattan, I've shocked jaywalkers out of their freakin' shoes.
