Looking for a loud horn?

Post by Sabre »

Check these out before you by anything else. I have not heard them, but at 134db, they'll get the job done!

I have had numerous near-accidents, during which I honk, but the other driver doesn't even blink at me. I can barely hear my own horn over the factory stereo. I think I just might get this sucker...

The Supertones (the first set) are a little too high for me. I wonder how low the second set it...

What is the difference between the latter two? Are these things difficult to install :?:

The bottom or "ultra compact" black horns are smaller than the "Compact" red horns...basically a smaller profile to fit in a wider range of vehicles vs. the red ones. I don't think there is any difference in the sound.

As far as installation, I have never done it but it can't be that difficult.

In terms of this, I must go with your opinion, because all the others does not seems to match my taste
