Hi all,

I am wanting to get a horn for my C5 but I don't know if I go for the original horn which would be a lot of fuss or if I just go for the Maplins one but then there would be no wiring  :-\ :-\

I think it's a matter of personal preference. If you really want originality, spend more and get a genuine one. If not, you might as well go for the cheaper option of the Maplins one.

The thing with the horn is it will never be seen, so if it sounds the same I doubt anybody will ever know the difference lol!
