Systems depending on size and complexity are starting at around $150+ iirc.

Should rates vary but I’m sure it’s only a few hours labor.

I really need a horn for my Subaru as it doesn’t have one at all right now… hm… :ponder

Sorry for they delay.  
That system is no joke. And Vlad you’re way off on install times, at lease for this truck. We made a complete bracket/shelf for the compressor and tank unit to bolt to and then bolted it to the upper right front corner under the bed. This included the horns and the switch/valve to open the gate.

This unit was a 12 hour project to build/hide/install.  
The unit itself cost $800.

They make/ we can make about any size you’d like. this one had a single compressor and a 2 gal tank which gave about 7-10 secs of serious noise… we can also control the psi if youd like… :rofl

We did not hook this to the normal horn as it is for NON HIGHWAY USE. So NO you cannot sub it for the normal car horn belive it or not their is a legal limit for you car/truck horn.

We can do this for you. Depending on the length and noise level you’d like, the kind of vehicle you have all determines the cost you will pay.

I promise you…you WILL NOT be disappointed!

But yeah the hornblasters stuff is more expensive and I’m sure you get what you pay for.

I thought about it for the focus but then I realized it could probably use new wheel bearings first…
