When looking for a fault why horn not working, I found that I have only hanging cables and no horn :-D

The previous owner probably disconnected him.

I try to keep Rolls in the most original state. Do not you know what kind of horns I should buy?

In cars of that time he was mostly a 12V lucas horn.

If I understand it correctly, here are two horns (hi-tone, low-tone).

I wonder if I have to buy some original or there are the same from another type of car (Jaguar or other).

Thank you!

Or to that originality I do not want to blow it like a toy :-)

I do not know if the rolls had a specific horn except air horn.

Hi Stefan,

Here is a link to Flying Spares that show the high & low tone horns for your Shadow.

A wreckers may have them cheaper.

Yes, I know about this but They do not have stock.

So I'm looking for some alternative.

Thanks

Stefan,
Some Shadows had two different types of horn both fitted on the same car. An electric pair of horns and an air operated pair of trumpet horns.
Does your car have no horns at all?
If so then I would just buy a pair of 1970s Jaguar horns if these are readily available to you. They should be cheap enough. Early Range Rovers would also have suitable horns.
