Default Air Horn

After a year of being told I had a bitch horn I decided to prove everyone wrong and get an air horn. Installed it last night. All it required was was bracket fabrication and some wiring. 01102010524.jpg
I'm still have to paint the bracket black and clean it up a little bit. Also get a better place to ground the wires than the battery terminal.

Sounds nice went and picked up my girlfriend today she walked past the front of the car and I blasted it. Specs say it's a 125 decibels. way louder than stock.

be careful with the horns like that, i used to have some exactly like that and they would always fill with water and other **** until they finally broke. i would flip them now and save yourself a lot of headache.

With the air horns I have, I just mounted them downward on the inner fender under the headlight assembly. It was kind of a pain in the *** to get em bolted in there considering there isn't much play room (unless you removed the bumper), but with the holes already there it was as simple as it could possible get. They don't appear to get dirty since it's protected by the fender, bumper, and wheel well.
