DIY: Horn relocation... (more airflow?)

One thing that bugged me about this car is the one horn that sits in front of the radiator...



So while I had my bumper off for intake modification, I decided to relocate it.





All thats required is rerouting the wiring a bit and re-using one screw from the mounting bracket up front to mount it inside the fender well to the frame. Nothing extra required

I highly doubt you get any difference in airflow to the radiator from having the horn there. Let's put it this way, If it would've been a problem them Subaru/Toyota wouldn't have put it there in the first place. Whatever floats your boat though.

Maybe not, but the stock location just really bugged me... made the grill look asymmetrical, like a tooth is missing from its smile LOL!

Ah I see, I never noticed mine behind the grill of the FR-S but I now see why you did it.
