Well my horn took a big ol dump on me and while I'm sure there's any number of reasons and solutions, I'm going to see this as the opportunity to install an air horn. Does anyone have any good recommendations?

 

This is the kit Im running,,


Here is how they sound,, they sound way louder and better in person.

Awesome. i am thinking of just adding horns since i have a Viair OBA setup already.

 

Cool,,make your own. Ive been looking into making some PVC-pipe train horns since I have the small air tank for the horns already. There are a few vids on the tube on how.

 

hmm, I'll have to look up the DIY.

 

Jump to 3:17 in this vid.. This guy makes killer ones.. this is the M5 train horn he made. when you go to 3:17 he is coming down the road toward the cam. Im just looking to play around and make one.. not for the Jeep just for fun..lol

 

Thats awesome. kit comes with air and everything or just the horns? didnt get the chance to look into it. how was install.


yeah its always a possibility but its also $20 every couple months when you have to replace failing horns.

holy crap. how big do you think his tank is for this.

 

I'll vouch for this kit, I got it in my jeep. Really loud, and easy to install.

 

Yep the kit comes with everything needed. I ran the horns inline with my OEM horns so when I push the wheel like normal they honk. install was simple.

The size air tank he is using is just on of those small 10gal ones for tires or around the shop.. it don't take much air to make them honk lound, its just you don't have a lot of air for long long blasts.

 

I'm thinking about wiring mine to my steering wheel. How bad was that?

 

Simple just run the hot wire from the solenoid on the air horns to the hot wire on the OEM horns. That way when you honk the OEM it will give power to the air horn solenoid allowing them to honk.

 

where did you tap in at? Like all the way where the horn is or closer to the relay?

 

Just trace the wire back from the OEM horn until you find a spot that you like to splice in at. Heck you can just splice in right where the OEM hot wire is on the horn. The OEM horn is ground by the bracket. The one wire coming off of it is the one 12v hot.

 

did you remove your horns or leave them? And if you removed what did you do with the hot wire for each?
