I'd like to get an air horn for my car, whilst still keeping the stock horn. Crowd control you see. Anyone have something like this installed? I'd like a trumpet, but not sure if it'd fit under the hood. In any case, the visuals are not so important. What I want the most is a deep truck sound, like the big rigs. Don't need 600dB, but a good volume would be best. Also, I want to wire it in such a way that i have a separate button controlling it, perhaps besides the fog switch where there appears to be a slot that resembles a blank so maybe some wiring tips would be good too. Any of the kits on ebay good? I will post some links if it makes it easier. I am not really an expert on this. Looking to spend maybe $50.

I bought a couple sets of these horns.
Replaced the wimpy horn on my '79 Rx7, it is extremly loud now.
They are on sale at least every other month for $13. Even at the list price of $19. , they are a steal IMO.
Pretty high quality unit made in Italy. I did substitute the weak vinyl hoses with nylon braded hose from ACE hardware store, cut to length from the bulk hose section in the store.
I also painted the horns black with some of that Krylon 'Fusion' plastic paint to make them last longer.

Thanks for the replies y'all. I think this is kind of what I am looking for, in terms of volume and sound:

Unfortunately, I've only found one place that sells it so far and they want $110 for it, plus shipping: servicemate.com
What about a visit to a breaker's yard? You may hit lucky!

I dont know, the lowest I ever saw any go for was right around 500.00. Plus then you need a tank to charge, and a compressor but thats optional. These things are like 2 feet long pointing all the same way!!! This is some serious stuff.
