Mine stopped working so I got a stebel nautilas air horn. Bought some electric wire and used crimps to go with it. Easy enough to do.

I think mines the standard horn and its pretty loud i thought! If you can't use the plug you might need a couple of spade connectors and some crimps but most horns use the same fittings :y:

I bought an aftermarket 1 from a car spares place,cost me something like £12.00 & is a bit beefier in tone.I had to cut the citroen plug off the harness & put a couple of spade connectors on the wires.:y::drink:

Mine sounds even squeekier than usual for some reason, I might grab one from another model at some point.

Sometimes theres a screw on the horn that you turn to adjust.:y::drink:
