Does anybody have an electric air horn for thier truck? I want one really bad but I don't want to mess around with compressors and hoses.
If you do have them, how much were they and where did you get them?
Were they hard to install, and can I have it as a seperate horn that just operates from a button in the cab somewhere rather than it replace the factory horn? My neighbors would get pretty pissed if they had to hear a train horn every time I locked my doors.
Thanks guys!

 

i have one from pep boys $25 it is a deul horn 130 db it is pretty loud i tied it in to my stock horns, when you lock the truck it wont build enough pressure to be that loud, good luck

 

So when you get pissed at someone on the road do you have to hold the horn down for a little bit in order for it to be loud?

 

I want the Dixie horn, like on the General Lee, but I haven't been able to find one.

 

That's my cell phone ring!

 

I have bought from JC Whitney before that pretty good quality

Try this one. I bought mine about a month ago. I have yet a free moment to install it, but it's very loud.

is there a way I can hear these horns before I buy one? anyone know of a site that has samples of horns with different dBs?

 

Word.

Wow..amazing - I posted this same thread about 3 months ago and got flamed to death..

I really feel our horn sucks for the size of the truck. Saw a F250 one day that had an air horn, and bought crapped myself when I heard it. Loved it.

 

Ooop, just found a link.

To hear a sound file for this horn go to www.stebel.it click on products, click on electropneumatics, then click on Nautilus.

Don't like it. I want more of a Semi sound..

 

Exactly what I'm looking for as well. Amazing the people that'll pull out in front of a 5500 lb truck. Don't wanna give em a heart attack but if they pee themselves just a little bit, well it's evil but that's what I'm looking for.

 

I installed a set of Grover Organ Tone (24 inch & 27 inch) Air Horns on my F250. (They are hidden underneath) They sound so sweet! It was quite a project and cost a bit over $500 bucks, but it is worth it.

 

You're not going to get REAL air horns with out a compressor.

HADLEY

 

Exactly. Old ladies pulling out in front of a speeding 5500# truck is a little nuts. The big grill and bright headlights don't seem to be good enough.
