Question Need to replace horn on 2004 TSX

I am in need of some help to find how I can replace the 2004 TSX horn to the more calmer and not as crazy sounding beep from the 2005-2007 TSX's. Does anyone know which are the horns on the TSX? I think I have an idea and they are right behind the bumper and are two black looking objects on the left and right behind the front bumper. Also if someone could provide a part# that would be great so I can order some replacements if possible.

Are you talking about when you arm the alarm only?
You want the horn to still sound the same when you press down on the steering wheel, right?

If you think the horns are too loud, why not try disconnecting one of them before replacing? One horn has low tone and one for high tone. Personally, I want the horns to be noticeable by other drivers when I need to warn them (like get the f**k out of my way!).

You need to work on your 120-40 braking...

If you want to change the alarm sound, you'll need to do some rewiring... The 05+ TSX's comes with a separate buzzer, relay for the alarm.

'04 TSX just sound the horn when you lock/unlock the car.

If you change the horn, you'll change.... well, the horn sound...

I've been looking to do this for a long time, but noone has figured out the wiring yet, it seems
