Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari Digest, Vol 215, Issue 11

[Michael Maulucci (michaelmaulucci]

Reference horn
Michael 
I have to replace mine it 
Broke off flush where it goes in, are there
 two horns  ,and are they metal or plastic?
I think mine was replaced with a black plastic one.
The pump is original though.
Thanks
Michael 77 308GTB
