new to the site


Hi

New to the site and wondered if I can change the password so i can remember it and can't figure out how to do it. Not always on the same computer so hoping I am just being dumb.

thanks

Welcome and what a neat car. You will have to post up photos in the members ride section, if you haven't already.

Nice ride horty 2!

Correct me if I'm wrong but, I think those horns are called 'Fanfare Horns' by Bosch??? I've always wanted a pair of those. Look great :tu:




If it's not in a Vee Dub I'm not going!

Cheers Nickster

Yes they are - be warned though for any one wanting to fit a set they are not a straight bolt on and need some carefull modifacation and a steady hand with an angle grinder!

so by cutting them like that they're simply secured to the headlight at the bottom?

I'd love a pair of them for my '62 but seeing your pic's is making me reconsider.. I'm not known for a steady cutting hand!!

Yes they are secured at the bottom - I had to get some alloy tubing as a spacer also to lift it a little way up from the fixing but it pushes nice and firm against the lens now for a good fit.

It's hard to hold it in the it in vice without also as only two small tabs to grip on the grill.

Take it slow and steady and will be OK ;-)
