MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - ZS TD Horn

Anyone out there can help ? The horn on my 2005 ZS TD has stopped working - I've had it checked out and it is not repairable and needs a replacement. I've had an order in with Xpart for approx. 2 months now and no sign of when they will be able to supply a replacement. I would appreciate any suggestions of where I could get an alternative replacement.

A scrap yard?

There's a long list towards the bottom of this page: http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/group4/MG_specialists/specialist_autobreakers.htm

Thanks Rob, my car is covered under an RAC warranty and they say they will only pay for a new part so I was trying for a new one but maybe your suggestion is the quick answer.
Chas

Ah - I see! Have you spoken to Liz Abbott at X-Part about this? She's the one responsible for sourcing difficult to find parts :o)Tel: 0870 2424791

Sorry for the delay in responding Rob. Been up north for a few days. Thanks again for your help - I'll give Liz a call.

Go to Halforauds and get a set of FIAMM air horns
got them on the Red Rooster!!

All sorted now. I'm not sure the air horns (Dukes of Hazzard) suit my subtle tastes... anyway my (very helpful) local MG/Rover service centre managed to change the loom fittings on another ZS model horn and now I have the ability to honk !! The garage lent me a new 307 for a couple of days - was I pleased to get back in my MG !!!
Chas

For anyone's future reference the horn the garage put on (and it works very well) is X-Part number YEB100820.
