Horns - Bosch or Hella???

Post by vricardo »

:evil:

...well, not these, of course! But I need a hi and low tone horn for my 71 Targa. Does anyone know if they were Bosch or Hella? Does anyone have ones for sale?

Thanks!

They were Bosch Fanaren ones. They are red. They are no longer available but sometimes they do come up on ebay.

The likes of Roger Bray stock replacements which are similar but not original.

Thanks! Is that the correct way to spell it? I've run a search on Google and nothing came out...

The full name is Bosch Sport-Fanfaren.

Fanfare Rally Horn

Bosch Part no: 0 321 023 908.

They are not Porsche specific as they were used on a lot of cars at that time.

Thanks again.
I've found 2 types, both with the same description (I couldn't confirm the part number...):

Something tells me that you mean the yellow box ones, but I'm sure I've seen a car with ones that looked like the ones bellow, probably not originals...

Yes thats them in the yellow box.

Good Luck finding some. I bought my NOS ones on ebay a couple of years ago. They were not advertised as porsche items so its worth keeping an eye out for some.

I bought replacements from Mittlemotor in Germany. They are the ones that look like a snail, and sound original. I didn't check to see who made them however.
