Default Horn Cover?

I read an earlier post where the cover was preyed off. Anyone know any other way to remove the horn cover on my 2000 2300SC? I checked the anchor locker, and it is solid - no way in to the horn area. I can't sam to get into it from the berth. I am stumped. Any help is appreciated!!

If is uses the same horn as my 2004 2400 SC3 then the cover simply prys off, and then there are two phillips head screws that fasten the actual horn to the boat.

Just replaced mine a few months ago.

Where did you get the replacement? Mine is sounding a little weak.

Hey Jerry,

Mine was completely dead and I wanted a direct replacement. I pulled it out so I could find out what brand/make/model it was then started web surfing.

Found it online at West Marine.

when I prized mine off last week there are 3 plastic studs that hold it on and 2 of them snapped. I replaced the horn and then carefully sealed mine back into place, left it over night held in place with gaffer tape and it looks like new now. Will have to use a fine blade in future if I need to remove the cover again. Thats the downside as I couldnt get a cover where my boat is kept in Spain and needed to fix the horn asap as the police have been doing checks.
