HangKen Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I have a new horn system to install and thought it was very easy to locate the stock horn. I could not find where the stock horn was inside the engine bay. Can anyone tell me where the horn location is, and also what to take off to get to that location?! Also, is it a 2 horn or 1 horn? and is it 2 plugs or 1 plug? Thanks!! BTW it is for the 08 legacy Spec B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HangKen Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 OK, I looked at the link and did everything that had to be done to take the bumper off. However, it still had something holding the bumper and I just don't know what it is. I took off the 8 (I think) push pins on the bottom of the bumper. I took the 1 push pins from both side behind the inner fender liner. That's all to take the bumper off?! Also, taking the Grill off, total of 4 push pins on the top and how do I get the bottom part off? I installed the new horn and it sounds and looks nice!

HangKen Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 meir motor sports Well, that's what I am probably looking for.... I don't have a lift or a Jack Stand right now so kinda hard for me to get under to see what it's all about. Turned the wheel all the way but still did not have enough clearance for me to look inside to find the clip. Is the clip easy to find and easy to take off? It's weird...last time I was doing these kinda stuff was my 94 civic and that was loooong time ago, and only needed like 5 screws to take the bumper off... Now it's like I need to take this and this and this to take the bumper off!! I guess that's what you have to do when you purchase a better car..hehe Also, I was thinking about clearing out the head lights also so that's why I need to take the Bumper off. Oh yea, and your Avatar is Hot!! icrackedcorn Oh, that's a great Idea also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower your car and park over a Home Depot concrete parking lot stopper with an inch of rebar sticking up. As you back away, your bumper will easily come off. That's how I did mine - seriously ________________________________________________ [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1980"]'05 BSM OBXT Row-your-own, W.I.P. :rolleyes:[/URL] [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1242"]'06 Shrek B # 64 - The car the wife loved to hate :( Sold...[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meier motor sports Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 there are a couple of clips on the inside of the bumper from the bumper to fender. that may be wheats holding you up. get yourself a jack and jackstands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HangKen Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 sublo Well, that seems like a...... well, nice plan but I will try to take a look with a jack or something underneath... hehehe. Thanks for the thoughts !! meier motor sports I was thinking there should be couple of clips underneath because it was way too firm for me to take the bumper off. Do you happen to know what kinda clip it is? Because I know I couldn't take off the grill either beacuse they had some kinda clip on the bottom side of the clip. Thanks for your information!

meier motor sports Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 the grill has to screws then a clip or 2 on each side. then it has 4 hooks that sorta hook into the bumper. you need to push the bottom of the grill towards the radiator and lift up at the same time. the bumper is help on by the same sorta popits all over.

fonts Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Above the wheel wells there are friction clips holding the bumper in. Once you have removed all the pop its under the vehicle and in the wheel well you have to pull the bumper gently outwards from the wheel well. You'll have to do this from each side. And voila .... Oh, and don't forget to unclip your foglight harnesses before you start walkin away with the front bumper. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSpeed Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 My turn to try to be helpful: I got to my horns and installed an air horn without taking the bumper off - I took off the stock air box/air intake and installed an air horn after doing the intake silencer removal. Once you remove the intake silencer, the space between the front fog light and front wheel well is nice and open. I bolted my air horn in here throught the front wheel well (It's worked great for 10,000+ miles now). I just detached the stock horn clips and wired the compressor motor into these.

HangKen Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 Thank you so much everyone! Seems like I should have sufficient information here to take off the bumper now. Needless to say that my horn is already installed... It would be a good knowledge if I need to do the air intake or clear the head lights. The clips annoy the hell out of me beacuse it always seems like it's gonna snap. Thanks for all your information!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
