i did read....didnt see where it said "i took pics without the front scoop on"...horn - guess i was thinking it would take less time than to try to make it fit to Volants holes. heck, you gotta drill out the holes they have anyways...its not a 5 minute fast-food install...takes time to get the ryhme.
as for sound - i felt the same way at first - too loud for my son to sleep....now i love the punch it gives and the sound is only there when i hammer the skinny pedal (which is more often than i care to divulge)
