Well I have been wanting a train horn for a long time but just couldn't bring myself to pay all of that money. I went to autozone and found an after market horn that uses a very small compresser that blows air through hoses into 2 trumpets. I bought it and installed it but then noticed it was a little highpitched, I decided to go to advanced autoparts and see what they had, Come to find out they had something that was very close to what I already had but this time it was a deeper tone. I hooked both of them up and for $40 total, I've got some kick *** train horns. Between the high pitched tone and the deep tone, It makes the perfect sound. They also are quit loud also. Ill take some pics and post them up shorty. I will also try for a sound clip.

 

You have air horns, not train horns.

 

You could have bought the same thing out of JCwhitney...

 

Well I just thought it was a neat little mod for 35, 40 bucks.

 

I'll be curious to hear it. If you like it, that is all that counts.

 

Thanks, Yea I tried to do a sound clip but it just got all distorted. Heres some pics though,

 

Looks good but where im from we call them CHICO horns cause every roach coach and buick regal has them and there always hooked up to the most sensitive alarms. (NYC) btw

 

lol .. well in my big truck, I like the train horns... Specially when I am running calls for my ems squad, really moves people lol

 

hmm i may have to pick a set of those up, how many times louder are they than stock, rough estimate?

 

You do know that you can get some real cheap train horns from ebay? hornblasters or seige engineering dot com

 

How much did that setup run you?

 

This last set up was just under $200 2 gal tank and comp with a triple tone horn from hornblasters ebay store i did a best price of 185 and they took it

 

Thats a nice setup for the cost. I just bought new wheels and tires so with that said, I didnt have that amount of money to spend on some horns lol

 

Your compressor is pretty close to the road. Aren't they not supposed to be exposed?

 

those are air horns, not train horns
