Another nod to the hella supertones. High quality, compact/easy to install right behind the grill, reasonably inepensive. They are also louder than most horns from the tests I've seen performed, no matter whatt he boxes rate them at. They don't sound pretty or "cool" IMO, they sound nasty and ugly...and like something you want to get out of the way of.
I've had some cheap replacement horns fail, and I've heard of air horns not being reliable (valves getting stuck or something).
I have the supertones on mine and, while you can use the factory wiring, I used a relay system activated by one of the factory horn wires, leaving one of the factory horns operable too (total of 3 horns). The relay is easy, allows the factory wiring to remain 100% stock plus makes sure the hellas are getting all of the voltage they need to be full volume.

It's pretty simple. I mounted the horns on the beam/support behind the bumper and grill. I'm pretty sure the supertones came with the relay, not 100% sure though. I did remove one of the horn grills for clearance reasons.
I'd intended to reposition mine at some point as one of the horns is partially blocked by the bottom of the grill when the hood is closed. I haven't done it because there is just no need. I find myself already not using my horn sometimes for fear of scaring the innocent...
There are some youtube vids of them, mostly on subarus. the vids don't really do them justice but give an idea.
