Default I took out one of mine so i could mount one of my xenon ballasts...

in its place. I never use my horns really but with just one horn it sounds kind of ghey. No other problems with removing one of them though.

Default Actaully, there is a reason for that...

One horn produces a high tone, the other one a lower one. Combined, they are effective, but each on its own is lousy.
