Default LifeSaverHorn

I'm not sure if any of you have seen these, but I picked one up to see if I could make hitting the horn button any easier. Sometimes i go to hit the horn button only to hit the turn signal instead. This rig puts the horn right at your thumb while you're gripping the handgrip. They are durable and really easy to install and I believe they come in both black and chrome. Just wanted to offer my impression of a really handy option.

Glad to hear it. The maker offered it to a few folk to test and report on here a while back, I was one of them. Never did receive it. Emailed him about it and never heard a reply. No one posted a follow up review, so I suspect no one got one to test.

I just read everything I could on them because I like the idea. Not sure if the product will work well for what I'm looking for, but for the price I'm willing to try so I went ahead and ordered.

I got one to test, didn't work for me. I would have lost grip area for the device. Gave to a friend to try and wouldn't work for him either. I posted the review and I got hassle from the dude.

Yep, requires two hands though. Pull with left hand, twist with right.
