Explorer horn in 07 ranger?
The horn in my 07 is pretty weak. The one on my old explorer was more than sufficient.
Can I find a late model horn from an explorer and "plug and play"?
The horn I see on my truck is right behind the grille on the passenger side.

I can't answer your question exactly..but I just ordered these yesterday to replace my stock weak horn:
Piaa #85110
115 decibels
400hz/500hz
From what I can see..they are pretty simple to install...simple splice & tap into the stock horn wires.

i ordered explorer horns last night, thanks guys.
there might be one catch...
from the photos it looks like they need a plug, no wires coming out of the male connectors recessed in the housing
maybe i can just seal off where the plug goes and wire tap the two leads that interconnect the high/low tones??

Thanks guys,
much appreciated SVT, you are correct they were plug and play!
all i needed to do was use a 8mm wrench, remove the bolt, remove the single tone chincy horn (srsly Ford?!) then i modified the explorer bracket slightly
the arm thats bent in, inverse it, bend it out instead and rebend the tab. Loosen the nuts to rotate the horns so they face down for water ect.
bend the locking tab flat so it'll sit flush, plug harness back in, refasten the bolt.
Horn sounds just like my former explorer did, factory LOUD. 15 minute mod.
