On the advice of this board, namely R18C, I decided to replace the 18's lame stock horn. This aftermarket horn is LOUD! It also was easy to install, and cheap. Bolts right up with zero modifications. Highly recommended!

Thx! I got help here from ENZO5000 and The Mucker.
Here is the link:

I like the fact it is loud and plugs into the factory harness with NO CUTTING of wires.
 
Wow, I hit my PHORNE the foist time yesterday, I was so embarrassed, what was BMW thinking ??? I already have the horn you mention, so I must get it swapped....
 
By the way, if anyone wants one, I have an extra one to sell. I accidentally bought two. I will ship it anywhere conus. Paypal accepted.
 
Thanks Adrian R!

I bought the extra Clarion horn Adrian R had and installed it today. It took me almost as long to get my old hide down and back up as it did to make the swop ;) and the very noticeable increased volume and quality of the sound over the OEM is well worth the minimal effort and cost. I did noticed the original horn had three attachment brackets stacked together and the replacement had only two. I used three and can only guess the potential exposure to vibrations on the R18 v. automobile applications may be the reason?

Cheers
