the mounting bracket... later modified to a 'J' with a flat peice on the front so no drilling of my fender walls was needed.

the finished product... 123 decibles of pissed off fun!

Awesome! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif I've thought about dumping the squeek-horn and putting in an air-horn - but then that'd be over kill. I just hate the tiny srtock horn. You hit it and it's like "um...'scuse me...beep-beep". Now put in an air horn - or maybe yours, and it's more like "MOVE! :evil: I SAID MOVE!!!"...LOL

that's actually really true. if you had something loud, it will startle people and really make them move or wake up. My room mate's miata horn is quieter and shittier than a Ferrari's toot toot horn. You can barely hear it, it's just a speaker that plays the same sound. Like a computer speaker, not a loud horn. The 7G horns are kinda shitty too, not very loud really.

i'd rather startle people with a loud ass BOV https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif i never hooked my horn up when i got my MOMO wheel...so if i needed to, i used to purge my nitrous and startle people that way. 2 smoke stacks coming off a cars whiper cowel does the trick. haha.

i just searched around online for different cb radios, cuz i couldnt find standalone pa systems. i ended up getting a lower end Cobra model, and the PA horns arnt too expensive online.

installing it was pretty easy, just ran power to the CB radio, and stuck the horn under the hood and wired that too.

i also bought a CB antenna that uses ur already existant radio antenna just so i have that functionality, havnt used it much other than messing around with friends, but i guess its a lil extra thing to have

here is a link to some air horns.

Awhile back I was looking in JCWhitney catalog and I was thinking about getting a semi's air horn...but then I saw the train horns! oooooh baby. 150+ deci!!!! but i still just cant fathom spending over $150 just for horns.
