Interesting. I guess I must have Clear Hooters horns, then.

Maybe it is as simple as emphasising the difference between Lucas and
Clear Hooter horns. Mind you, according to the Rimmer catalogue, there
was only one type of horn ("Standard"), which has a D-shaped mouth and
no adjusting screw, rather than the oval mouths and adjusting screws on
mine. Would I be right in thinking that Rimmers have illustrated the
Lucas model?
