This would be for my pontoon boat. Factory horn is under the deck. Any idea if these can handle some water splashes?

I have my horn in the front area of my car. It gets wet all the time from rains. I think if you keep it the horn facing downward, it should be good.

It is useless, without water also, doubt it can be any good for the water splashes

Mine got wet and stopped ... Took three day to dry out...removed it and won't buy another product of theirs

I would NOT mount under the deck, which is what I said in my original reply on line 4.

Since the horn is meant to be mounted under the hood, and generally in front of the radiator, it is sealed and weater proof. It would be ok for your boat as long as it's not mounted under the deck of a pontoon boat, or within a foot or two of the waterling. Be aware that it IS NOT a loud horn. You'd be better off getting a horn from a marine supply store either in person or on-line. They are specifically made for marine vessels.

They are self contained and should have no problem on a boat. Unit is sealed. Read q/a on this b4 and others state it is water tight. Good luck.

I would not recommend these for a boat. Also these are not as good as I thought they said to be. If you want bass these definitely are not the ones. Hopefully this will help.

I haven't had any problems driving in the rain with them, I have actually submerged them to load a boat on my trailer and they are still working fine. they are also really bright, I'm very happy with them, only problem I had was the plate holder was cheap plastic and broke so I mounted the plate to the fender but the lights are great

Don't think so..they were bought for inside auto installation not on a boat so probably not as moisture resistant as "Marine Speakers" would be. Would probably work in marine installation for a while, but not long.

I have my horns mounted under my hood aming out the front so they must get some water in them but it hasn't afected them yet even snow dident affect them they are loud!!!

Yes, they well work on Pontoon boats. The are not recommended for any boat that has a painted bottom.

Hi Henry,I've had these horns on my car for several months now and haven't had any issues. I've had my car through the car wash a couple of times and summer rain storms, so far so good. Mine are mounted and attached to the crash bar.

I don't know about water proof. By they can withstand being outdoors. I've got mine in the front of my boat on the railing. They get splashed on lightly and rained on. They work and sound pretty good

it would work, but yes, you will have to drill into the boat floor. we use it over the gunnel, but that wouldn't work for a pontoon boat...

Absolutely! My dogs are in the water a lot, splashing and shallow immersion of the collars, no problems. Good product.

I'm not sure because mine are mounted on the side of my 5th wheel camper. But these speakers are build very well, the grill is well supported by the speaker housing. I really don't think you will have any trouble with these on your boat.

They could be if you desired to do so. I have them mounted on my boat and they are great...especially for the price!

I have them in my boat. Plenty of sound. You will need an amp to get the best out of them.

That is what I am using them for. I mounted them in a pontoon boat and have had no problems.

Probably no. depends on how much salty air/water you have. I put these up outside in my house which is about 2,000 feet from the Atlantic Ocean. Within a matter of months, the grill screens were rusting horribly. Had Klipsch send me another set of grills. Same thing happened. Rest of the speaker was fine. Took these speakers and put them outdoors at another house on a Bay which is mix of fresh and salt water...mainly fresh water...been up several years and no corrosion. Point: if there is alot of salt in the air and water, grills will not likely hold up unless the company changed the material. Probably no. depends on how much salty air/water you have.

No . They're great 3 way speakers for a car but when exposed to water they will fall apart. Marine speakers are the way to go when dealing with all weather.

Yes as long as the boat has a transom, they are a quality set, very tuff built.
