Default X308 where is the horn located

X308 where is the horn located?
Need to disable as alarm keeps going off every 5 hours.
I'm single so can't sound it and trace

Bonett open is showing and it is parked on main road so it maybe tremler is too sensitive
Regards Stephen

If I remember correctly there are two, one each behind the left & right inner headlights. You can see them with a flashlight if you look upwards while lying on the floor under the front of the car. I think you have to remove the front grill to access them.

The security horn is NOT the warning horn(s).
Security system horn is located in different places for different years. You do not specify the MY so I cannot help.
The Country and LH or RH drive might make a difference also.

I have a 1998 Parts Car and the security sounder is on the left side of the radiator just under to radiator top support.
I have several later model X308s and the sounder is under the left headlamp area near the atmospheric catchment tank.

NO idea about RH drive cars.

It's a uk 2002 and it sounds like it is the car horns on top of maybe a security horn
