Ok so I had to put one in the new car because I love the sound of it. Basically I just took a couple scrap pieces of sheetmetal from work and bent them up for what I wanted. Measured twice and cut once, ya right, got it all fitted into the engine bay, then took it out and mounted everything. I ran all the wires last night in the living room, so hopefully Friday I can get the horn mounted in the car and I will be scaring the shit out of people in no time. Going to paint the whole bracket black at work today, so gidde up and enjoy. ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/horn1.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/horn1.jpg) ---

I am pretty sure this will be loud enough. The last one me and pretty much L8Apex1 did everything, but we had to mount it inside the frame in the front of the car. It was crazy loud. ---

it’s going to sound like shit … kind of like a dying whale … that small air compressor barley puts out enough sound … it won’t be loud at all and it won’t come on fast liek your stock horn … there’s like a second delay. i tried it before when i was like 18 and dumb and it wasn’t that great at all. to make ti work right you need an air tank with some serious psi in it ---

depending on what it is playing it should sound ok, i used that kit on a coworkers truck back in the day. He wanted lacoucaracha…he was mid 40s early 50s puerto rican and had a chain steering wheel. It was awesome. Worked fairly decent ---

Worked fairly decent i didn’t think this style played songs? i know what style your talking about and it is way better than this … but this one is just on/off air to all 3 horns. oh and when that tube get’s hot it collapses at any bend usually… those don’t look to bad though ---

They dont seem to do well in the cold weather and salt is the problem. Put them somewhere dry if you want them to last. jeller ---

Well the last one I had sounded good I thought, and there are a couple people on here that can vouch for it. It is just a standard, Ferrari sytle loud ass horn. Nothing ghey like Lacucaracha. ---

Galvanized and zip screws, I love it!! When you get it all said and done you need to pull along side of someone and ask them if they want to race. . . Then tell them to go on the third peep / song ---
