Polo Horn

Hey guys, Need your help here again....I need to feel assured about something... I saw a red polo the other day in the city so I beeped at him and he beeped back. By doing this I noticed the red polo had a much baseier tune to it when compared to mine. Mine sounds more of a higher pitch then a lower...kind of gay actually! people don’t take you seriously enough when you beep the hell out of them....anyways took the car to VW Essendon for a service and I mentioned the horn problem they said they will check it out... anyways after checking it they said there was no fault detected it seems to be working fine.... and, to take it back another time if I’m still not happy with it....I think they didn’t check it cos they where to busy or whatever...so what are your theories on this? Does yours have a high or low pitch sound?

Join the club mate, the MK3 golf horn also has an incredibly squeaky high pitched quality to it. Its a pretty sissy horn if you ask me. I'm guessing you could probably swap it with a Passat horn, they're much beefier in my opinion and is something I intend to have a go at in the near future.

Mine plays "Colonel Bogie". I'm thinking of changing it to the theme from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

Mine's great. A guy gave cut me off on a roundabout, I beeped the horn and he waved a sorry out the window. I gave him the finger anyway, cos he saw me coming, just didn't stop.

It should play "I've got a bunch of coconuts" instead

In all seriousness my car has an incredibly girly horn, I can't have been the first person to notice this.

Apparantly Sharkie's FMICs are being packaged with new air horns as a special deal. The horns can be programed to play a number of themes, but the clincher is that it includes the "Dukes of Hazards - General Lee" horn theme. I guess Sharkie can name his price now, he'll be swamped
