Installed 2 FIAMM Freeway Blaster Horns. Before/After Video.

As many of you know, the stock horns in the 3rd gens (at least the '98, not sure about them all) sound horrible. I definitely couldn't go any longer with those stock things, especially with the winter season coming around and all the 'too extremely cautious/bad drivers' coming out.

I got these things for like 15 bucks each on Amazon, they were very simple to install; Snip wires behind the connector that goes to the stock horn, insert the female ends onto each wire, connect those onto the male ends that are mounted onto the horn, mount up. You're going to have 2 wires going into the first female end (the one on the drivers side), because 1 of those goes to the other side. Do the same for side 2, and you're set.

I definitely recommend this set-up for others, very great and cheap investment!

So for those of you who didn't see my Build-Up thread, here is a video and a picture of the product below. Now I know the sound quality might not be the greatest, since I used my phone and parked under an overhang to film it (slight echo), but you get the point. There is better quality sound tracks online, I actually think Amazon has one on the item page.

I did the same mod last year, got mine from Princess Auto, it's like a Tractor supply store....with all kinds of stuff for sale!





I ended up getting 2 high pitch horns though, but still better than the stock setup!
