• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

SMS630 Horn Upgrade

The 630 horn is truly pitiful and the horn button is strangely hard to find. I usually end up switching the high beam headlight on by mistake.

Me too, which I think gets more attention than the horn now that I've got the obnoxiously bright LED's tied into the high beam...
 
A louder horn is good but I wouldn't give up my flash to pass for nothing. Get used to using it and I believe it is a better attention getter than a stock or slightly louder horn (not better than Stebel or other air horn though). I can modulate the headlight crazy speed with the FTP. Visual beats audible in almost all cases. Soccer Mom with windows up, raod noise, A/C on, stereo on, kids yelling, etc. isn't going to easily hear any horn. Flash a bright light in her eyes multiple times a second though and she'll wake up (hopefully).

Use both.

RDTCU, I love those lighs and already have the solstice euro-beams in my plans. What did you mount to? I was thinking the bottom tripple clamp bolts but yours are wider apart which could be better. Cam.

Mine are bolted through the tank shrouds with with leftover body nut/bolt/washer from the undertray on my 350Z. Black bolt head with a big concave washer is visible on the outside, but only if you're looking for it. I wanted something as solid as possible, the stock mounts for the LED's are a little dinky, but they offer an upgraded version as well.
