Oh yea!!!!! Our mini is due to have these fitted and what better way to give it some companionship by having the cupra done at the same time! Is there any space for this under a cupra hood?

It needs to be done. I think they are quality! Cheesy but insane!

I don't use my horn as its pathetic.....

But is there any space under the bonnet to put these things in?

But a horn is different to air horns. Im wanting the ones that play musical things, like the godfather and other stuff.

Hey - HEYYY ! Don't knock the 'old school' Renault 5's - my previous car was a Renault 5 GT Turbo, and I can tell you one thing, it WAS faster that most cars on here! ...0 - 60 reached in 6 1/2 secs, VERY rapid cars, at a fraction of the price of an FR or Cupra. ;)

Mine was driven daily and in 2 years... NO, I never once had the mythical "engine blowing up" experience (before anyone asks). :p

Regarding the OE Ibiza horn - totally agree. Infact it has been other people that have commented on the weakness of the horn! lol.
How about the Dukes of Hazzard horn style! That'll get their attention! :D ;)

i didn't mean THAT kind of renault 5 - i meant the sort you'd find nowadays in france, being driven by it's original owner who happens to be 90 ;)

FR-Rush - A number of peeps have installed Audi / TT Horn.
As you would expect, alot louder and alot more "manly" sounding.

PauliePaul - All cool mate, I gathered thats what you meant ;)

Nope. Standard horn once saved my life on a two-lane motorway when a lorry driver decided to start overtaking without checking his right flank...
