I have one, haven't installed it yet But I plan on putting it into the bed of the truck with a toolbox to protect it and keep it dry. Can't really do that with a 4Runner I suppose.

As long as you got the tubing it shouldn't matter to much where you put the horns. Just make sure you put the compressor in a central location.

EDIT: ill post pictures latter today or tomorrow once i get it installed

I put a little switch next to the e break handle

thats gonna sound crazy with those all pointed all over. i think you can fit them between the rad and grille it looks badass (edit: ok maybe not badass but it looks pretty cool) too imo
that wiring and hoses looks like a nightmare you should invest in some zip ties

there are zip ties, but the tubes cant bend very much to make it look neat, or it will kink

one on the horns isnt working right right now, so once i fix that, i will record it

it is loud though, one of my frinds has a newer one, and mine is at least double as loud as his

Place all the horns as close to the air compressor as possible, you probably have that one horn placed too far from it.
