Replaced stock horn (2.5L)

Mine doesn't touch anything. I had to bend the tab just right to get 1/2" clearance.

Do you mind taking a pic?

Oh yeah, sorry. Did not check the name.

I understand now why the dealer asked me whether it's melted or not !
Will check but I believe mine does not touch the engine either (the mechanic installed it...).

You can easily push it away as I did to clear it.

Did push it away since it was touching the engine (though installed by the dealer ) but did not melt. The other thing I did not like either is that the dealer left it with the (brown) wire very stretched, don't know if ok to leave it as it is (?)
Now after I've adjusted it, it is no longer touching the engine (you can see a little mark resulting from how it was before) :

this horn is as powerful as car's !

As I can see, all of you have used only one of the two metal plates given to attach the horn. Do you think that the second one is a spare part as it seems very light ?
