If you have never used it before in your famous words
GOOGLE !!
There are a few good videos on line.

Man to ship a part that big would cost a fortune even though it couldnt weigh more than 500 grams.

Musical horns are not allowed to be the factory horn.

Apart that i like the FERRARI frequency of their horn, they are loud.

Horns are very efficient and amplify the sound. Hey ive got horns in my sound quality BMW.
I used to help build surf/windsurf & now kite boards with my brother in law....all carbon, carbon-kevlar (might not be bad idea for you, one layer of kev that faces the road....) & kevlar sandwiched with Divinycell and/or HoneyComb aramid core boards.....3.5 lbs surf board was KILLER, though too light....built some 1/8 scale nitro remote control car chasis too....high heat epoxy was key, cured in 150 degree C oven....

They charge you guys dimensional weight?? Thats from the English empire days, what the hellllll??!!!!

Funny thing is, I'm fed up with the lacks fitment of the current "under tray" I have combined with the WRC bumper I have....thinking of fabbing up a engine bay tray myself now....
