Bought my 2018 new in March 2018. Shortly afterwards, it had a stone hit on a fog light, & I decided to replace the OEM Meep meep horn at the same time as as the fog light replacement, as it would be exposed & easy to replace with parts off & easy access. I bought one from a dealer who advertised here, I believe located in the Mid West, but can't remember the name. It was much louder & was compatible. It either came with a wiring adapter, or didn't need one, as I can't recall, but has now quit working after 4 years. I did check the fuse, & it doesn't work with the panic button either, so assume a problem with the horn itself. Does anyone know the name of that Honda parts dealer, or recommend a place where I can buy a similar replacement that doesn't require wiring changes?

UPDATE: I found the Honda dealer when checking for horn replacements. It is College Hills Honda (Wooster, Ohio), & the replacement to a louder horn is #3802 Horn Upgrade Kit for about $28 including $9.95 for shipping. It incudes the wiring for a simple plugin to existing wire. Also is a PDF telling how to remove part to get to the horn area. There are also a number of really great YouTube videos showing the same way to access the horn, which is on the right side, directly behind the black plastic mesh grill next to my fog light. The mesh grill can be removed, but not sure if enough room to get to the horn, so may require removing parts from above & under the hood. I am going to have a local body shop do mine, even if it cost me extra.
