Midnight Black Horn Set. This new-generation trumpet horn is said to boast a “harmonious and strong (bass-rich) tone,” projecting its sound more widely for safer driving. It is corrosion-resistant, and bears a classic black finish. The two-horn product emits 490Hz and 410Hz with acoustic pressure of 110dB at two meters.
Classic Horn Set. Small and compact in size but said to be big on performance with its optimal sound projection, this horn has a full-form oscillator design. The set of car horns take less power (2 x 48W) compared to other horns, but is able to provide a focused, far-reaching sound. A well-designed tubular vent and filter are highly resistant against water spray, making it perfect for rainy days, while its powder coating makes it rust-proof. The pair produces 430Hz and 360Hz with acoustic pressure of 110dB at two meters.
Aside from high-performing car horns, Hella is also known for performance after-market lighting.
Platinum Performance Bulbs. Compared to standard bulbs, Hella’s Platinum Performance Bulbs deliver 100 percent more light to provide drivers with a wider field and longer range of clearer vision and safety. A “plug-and-play” design makes it easy to install and can be directly interchanged with original equipment bulbs. An E1 Mark Certification means its quality is German-approved and is in line with other premium products that Hella offers.
“We work hard to create and design products with road safety and functionality as our top priority, said Hella country manager for the Philippines Jason de Leon. “Hella is all about offering the market with premium products that work the hardest, last the longest, and keep Filipino drivers and car owners safest. With these product highlights, the Filipino market now has more options to choose from when it comes to enhancing their safety and visibility on the road.”
