I mounted my HB4H's in front of the condenser facing down....
They're all hidden except for the longest trumpet which is barely visible....


The K3's are mounted in a safari style roof rack that I welded up using leftover electrical conduit at my shop and they're hidden behind a double layer of heavy duty screen wrap...

Just installed some off-road lighting earlier today....

The center light will be wired independantly, so at night when I roll up on someone, they'll think a train is really comin hehe

Yes they sound just like those, but unless you have heard a set in person you cant get a feel for how loud they really are just by watching the video. Trust me these horns are VERY VERY LOUD. I am sure the ones SnakeEater has mounted on his roof rack are louder but thats like saying being shot with a 44MAG is worse than being shot with a 357MAG. For the price (around $350 for everything off Ebay) and mounting options (again if they were any bigger they would not fit anywhere on the front of out trucks) I am VERY satisfied with my set up. As for which horn it is on the hornblasters page I am not sure because I didn't by them from there, but its a 150PSI/152DB set up.
Here are some test videos of the HB4H's compared to the stock horn...
