Horn for 56 Australian Oval?
Hi
I have an Australian RHD 56 oval. Can some one please post a pic and description of what the original horn should be on this car?
Much appreciated.
Paul

It should have screw on terminals not push on type
Looks similar to the 60s type horn
could be either Bosch or Hella
Do you need a picture

Thank you VW54 and old Dubber. If you look closely at VW54's pics you will notice "Made in Australia." So I would say definitely Bosch- Screw
Terminal- 14mm nuts and Made in Australia. What other Bosch items on a 56 should be made in Australia?
