CSX2xxx horns
Can anybody tell me what horn(s) CSX2xxx cars had as standard? Do they sound any good?
Cheers, Glen |
I believe they were called "Windtone Horns" Hi & lo tones.
|
Good luck finding them.
|
So what else would be period correct and could one conceivably use as a replacement on an original CSX2xxx? ;)
Cheers, Glen |
Personally, I'd use a pair of replica Windtones:
Horns 12v - Horns & Spares from Holden Vintage & Classic Roger ps if you click on the horn photo you can hear what they sound like! |
I know its not original, but i've fitted on of these, courtesy of my better half....
Holden | Horns & Spares | Horns 12v | Chrome/Stainless Horn Low Tone |
The horns were available on several different English makes of the period. A lot of the time when they do not work you can simply adjust the point gap per the Cobra chassis manual.

I just got a pair of the modern repro Windtones:
Pair of Windtone Horns - Horns & Spares from Holden Vintage & Classic ...and they look very close to the one pictured in the 289 Chassis Manual. Roger |

I just learned something... turn the volume down on your computer BEFORE clicking that horn test button!

Good luck with Lucas part, model, serial, numbers names, categories etc. I believe the windtones are the 7H Lucas 7H Windtone Horn LU69152 AC Austin Jaguar Jensen MG Bentley Triumph | eBay

The expression "whinging pom" came to mind when I saw this at worthpoint.
Original Pair Vintage Lucas 7H Whintone 12 Volt Horn (04/22/2011)... Classic typo on the Whintones. That is a good (bad) example of searching parts by typos for ya. |
Moss Motors has replicas of the Lucas horns although there are subtle differences.
|
Yes, but do they sound the same as originals? ;)
Sorry, just channeling my inner Patrickt. I gotta hand it to you guys. :cool: |
