I installed hella horns just last week. No, there is only one horn. The brackets included with the horns fit perfect in the stock location. You can even use the same connector for one horn, then run...

Sorry, sure will, for 2 reasons....

I have exactly the stillen drilled and matrix pads on front. I don't know if I can recommend these because of the warping trouble I've had with them. Braking power is AWESOME, I love that part. ...

It doesn't... Satellite antennas actually are directional, but since you are constantly turning around there's no point in the car to try and have it any certain direction. At home it matters a lot!

Mine came off Ebay, however I don't know it's brand-name. It's hardened stainless steel though, you couldn't touch it unless you had a grinder. You sure you can just file yours down?

From the picture it doesn't look the exact same. Mine (Stillen) has a bit more vertical bend to it, and is thicker than that one appears. It does look like the brackets are dead on though. It...
