My friend and mechanic thinks that the 75 horns are all metal and point down... these were the exact type of horns we pulled off the car but one does not work.
Here is a picture he provided this morning... We need a concourse judge to help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached thumbnail(s)

========================================================================= Metal and slim. Smaller than the early '73 - '74 metal horns. Slim so they do not scrape as they are one of the lowest objects under the front end. The plastic "point forward" would NOT last a day. My two cents. ======================================================================== quote name='Jett' date='Nov 20 2019, 08:28 AM' post='2763647'] My friend and mechanic thinks that the 75 horns are all metal and point down... these were the exact type of horns we pulled off the car but one does not work.

Thanks everyone. It was a great debate and I learned a lot.

QUOTE(GaroldShaffer @ Nov 19 2019, 01:52 PM)  QUOTE(914werke @ Nov 19 2019, 02:38 PM) That's interesting. Ive never seen horns such as those fitted to any 914 only 75-76. Because of the big bumpers and the way they are mounted to the 75-76 cars there is no room for the horns. The older style horns will direct the sound downward hence the difference in the 75-76 style facing the sound forward. Again not saying the older style work, a horn is a horn. Here's a picture of my driver's side horn from my late '76, #3947. The passenger side is also round. Note the original undercoating on the mounting nut.  |

QUOTE(Jett @ Nov 21 2019, 05:35 PM) Any guesses on why some cars have only one? My 76 only has one. Driver's side. Identical to the one pictured just above. No provisions for a passenger side horn. No wiring for one. |

From the info I have seen, a single horn was stock on all 914s. Dual horns were stock on the 914/6 and optional equipment as part of the Appearance Group [Comfort Equipment] on all other 914s. They were also available separately ordered optional equipment as M-572. http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/OpEq.htm

The 76 for sale on Sotheby's site looks like it has the AP components but one horn. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
