noisy horn

[Chris and Tom Rutledge]

Hey Troop: Pardon please, the off subject question which follows, but I don't know who else to ask. Over the winter, I built a pedal car Bugatti for my granddaughter, and it's been a great success, especially the horn sourced from the Moped supplier. The horn looks great on the badge bar, very vintage in appearance, but it surely is loud. Will a resistor in the (12V battery) power supply line tone down the volume? If not, what ideas (beside earmuffs)? Tom Rutledge, Birminngham, Mi., USA TC 0535
