After market Horn...
I am looking at getting an aftermarket horn because i deliver pizzas in a college town, and God do i hate those college kids. (I go to school there to, but am older and wiser ) They need to know to get the Hell out of my way because when they are drunk, they seem just plain stupid.
Anyway, I had a nice horn on my wrangler, but i want something a little ridiculous, but not playing dixie or anything. I drive an 88 Laredo, and have plenty of mounting room. Any links to a good site with a good price would be great. Looking for some personal experience.
Thanks, y'all

I've used those one-piece air horns from Griot's Garage. I'm sure they can be gotten cheaper. Use a relay to trigger them instead of the pitiful factory wiring and they will be louder. I have air horns on both my Jeeps, one set purchased in the late 60s and transferred from vehicle to vehicle. They have a Maserati logo on them. Here's a link to the horns. They are louder than those 3 piece deals with hoses running to the horns like you see at the parts stores.

I'm thinking of getting Stebel Nautilus Air Horn: http://www.ridesafer.com/Stebel_Naut.../h0014-cah.htm
Its pretty loud, I think, compared to my stock horn. I would love to have a train horn though

I dont know if it will fit your fancy, but Im going to be installing a ahooga horn in mine and have already put a wolf whistle in. If you want to get someones attention, and have a little fun, then the wolf whistle is a GREAT way! Ive had some fun experiences.

For some reason, I have a feeling that the train whisle may not be too fondly appreciated by the local authorities... lol. We got staties, Campus police, and borough cops that are always afround like flies on ****. lol.
I will take a look at others mentioned on this post. I had an Air Horn picked up from Advanced auto on my old Jeep, it was loud, but kind of high pitched...
My Jeep Needs a MAN HORN. lol

Had these in my 91 VW GTI 16v. They worked great. People think there is a semi (Tractor Trailer) behind them. They aren't the cheapo's. Can't go wrong with Hella products....
