Stebel air horn
« on: March 22, 2011, 09:26:07 PM »
Has anyone out there successfully installed a Stebel air horn on their People 150 (not 150s)?

Same question for Agility models? I'm interested in a horn mod but want something that can fit where the OEM horn is mounted, not under the floor board... doesn't even need to be an "air horn" just an upgrade.

Any minor horn upgrades that folks recommend?

(small threadjack to try and make use of it)

Fiamm makes small aftermarket 12v horns that fit in tiny places.  A lot louder than standard issue squeakers.  I used one in my Cali 125 and just got one to add to my PS250 when I open her up for brake light upgrades.
People S250 - 2007
Honda Metropolitan - 2002
Lance Cali Classic 125 - 2012
Peace Verona 2012 - sold
Lance Cali Classic 50 - 2011 - sold

I think what I want is the "dual" high and low tone sound on a scooter. Anyone know if that's possible?

Can an Agility power both? Or will i need to do that 4-pin relay trick?

There are several threads on air horns.  I recommend mounting it by drilling a hole thru the windshield (if you have one).  The Stebel or WOLO Bad Boy (Harbor Freight, PEP Boys, u name it) can also be found in chrome for around $50.00 (Northern Tool).
This mounting provides a good height and maximum sound.  Just hook it up parallel to your existing horn.  I have had these models on 5 automobiles, GV, Xciting and Agility 50.  I have also mounted the Hopkins Deer Alert (E-Trailer) to this horn.

I installed a Stebel on my P150. I traded it in for a GT300i but I have pictures of the Install.

I have tryed a few horns or extra lights.But I end up takeing off because they cant handle the power and the battery gos faster.I thing the stator cant keep up with the power the battery puts out. Maybe if ya use the same wires the scoot horn is hooked up to you might be all right.

this is a stebel tm80. it comes in low or high tone for application on an Agility scooter. i think the low tone is more common. i have a low tone. not sure which this is in the audio, but mine sounds a lot like it

http://www.stebel.it/stebel2009/products.asp?IDserie=2&uso=1&tipologia=moto

stebel products are still available and i think this horn is sold at amazon under its model number

at any rate i think one or two other uses here use the horn for the Agility. its advantages are 12v and it fits perfectly (if snug) where the stock Agility horn sits. all i had to do was make the stock bracket holes a bit wider (did it with a screwdriver shaving) to fit the new hardware and it was literally "plug 'n play"

make sure the mount is secure and the wires attached very securely with a bit of electrical glue / paste or w/e it is used and be happy with your new super loud horn

it works very, very well. i love using it. pic of an Agility with said horn installed.  30 minute job even for a complete novice like myself :D

You can go to O'Reilly AP's and buy a "loud horn" for ~ $13-15 like whats shown . Google Fiamm horns to see the models & the DB's they put out. I see no need for a larger horn with a trumpet on it for smaller vehicles as there are lots of small loud ones on the cheap.
