Hi all,
Have noticed lots of previous posts about meta sirens being prone to damage from water ingress. This has happened to mine and I'm about to fit a replacement.
Has anyone relocated the siren to within the engine compartment or otherwise? Not sure whether the increased heat may be worse than water ingress?

Cheers,
Matt

Cheers guys,
have just fitted the new siren.
Have heard of tilting it downwards, but the orientation of the bracket does not allow this.
Thought of fitting the new bracket in at 90degrees to the old one but its a 2-man job to get the old one out - need someone holding the nut in the engine compartment whilst you undo the bolt from in the grille area! Then drilling holes for new bracket, near the radiator...thought better of it and used existing.

Have mounted it rear facing - keeping fingers crossed in next downpour!

Ribol,
how do you mount it down-facing then? remove / drill and reposition the original bracket?

Cheers,
Matt
