Time to upgrade the horns, any ideas???
So over the past week I have has an excess of horrible drivers infront of me. I laid on the horn, and as everyone with a 3rd gen knows, it is weak! I was checking out some hella horns on ebay that were pretty cheap compared to online stores, but i'm unsure of which to get. Trumpets, discs, etc. Also I would like to get a horn with some balls behind it, not those high pitched girly horns. So if anyone has any suggestions on what to get, please let me know. thanks.

How much are you looking to spend? I've got my eye on one (big rig air horn) which comes with a single trumpet (18" long) and needs an air compressor. I think total runs between $300-400 (sounds like a lot but I'd rather spend $400 now than $2000 when someone isn't paying attention).

Visit your nearest auto wrecker and try and find a three horn array from an old Cadillac. It'll make big highway trucks move over.

I have the freeway blasters (2 tone set) on my Landcruiser and my DD. I wired with a relay to get full voltage to the horns. Very happy with the sound for minimal expence.
Leaves cash for other mods

I also have the Fiam Highway Blasters. They're a dual trumpet setup and not hard to install. Not a Caddy, but certainly loud enough to make your presence known.
