    69 Horns

    Can someone enlighten me on how to dismantle a 69 horn?
    i've unscrewed the labelled arrowed black screw but no others remain and they seem fixed solid after many years. dont wanna force them and break them but... do i pry off or twist off or other?

    thx in advance.

    Old Bosch horns had screws, and the halves of them could be separated, I guess. They can be seen in this pic to the left:



    What horns that goes on what cars depends on VIN. Check out the 1965-69 PET, section 903-15. Original horns can still be ordered from Porsche (€35-55). Not sure if new ones still look like the old Bosch ones.

    Seems yours are repros.

    that single screw probably was used to adjust the horn sound/tone.
    not to hold it together. maybe it is a glued joint?
