    This might be a really weird request but as I was going over my new to me Tacoma I noticed that there are 2 horns in front of the radiator and one of them is just hanging there by its wiring. Looks like the bracket broke off somehow but I have no clue where it should go or how to reattach it. The other has its wiring cut somehow with a weird, though maybe irrelevant, small weld where it looks like it broke off too but was reattached.

    The first and third pic show the dangling horn and the second and fourth shows the horn that's still attached with what looks like a small welded repair.

    If someone would be so kind as too upload a picture of the stock setup I would really appreciate it.

    THANK YOU

    Not my picture but this should give you an idea of horn placement.

    Thanks Billy and I could be mistaken but that looks like a 3rd Gen judging by the engine cover which looks like the 3.5 liter engine? I'll look again but I don't think my horns were or could go back in that location. Thank you again.

    Sorry, I really should check the titles of my posts before posting them - Edited to the 2015 I actually own DOH! And it also looks like the horn placement is the same and I can see where the dangling horn broke off and someone tried to weld it back like the other horn. Not sure how I'll fix it but your picture answered my question so thank you again.

    Turns out BOTH horns had broken off. Hard to imagine but true. Or is it? Is this common?

    I repaired the dangling horn with JB Weld and some carbon fiber mat so it's not going anywhere. Still have some rewiring to do with one of the horns but having only one horn is not the end of the world.

    Not common
    Looks like it’s been in a front end collision and had some shoddy repair work

    2015 TRD Sport DCLB, but I would guess they look similar?

    Thanks for the pic Dagota - looks the same. Grill must have taken a hit in its previous life that broke the horns off the body mounts.
