Thanks to Randy, I yanked out the horn and installed a set of Fiamm truck air horns. I managed to finagle the compressor under the airbox on the left side using the forward hole already on the bottom of the airbox. Then I mounted the twin horns right under that. I made a couple of jumper wires and hooked them to the stock horn wires as they were about 4 inches too short to reach the terminals in the compressor. Now I have a set of horns that will wake the dead.:clap: Oh yeah, I also made some air deflectors for both the right and left side lower panels, as well as extended the scoop for redirecting the air from the rad. Amazing what a little bit of truck tube will do. :thumbup:

THAT's what I want! If I have to use it, I want it to be heard EVERYWHERE!

SheWolf, is that how yours sound? Can someone put up pictures of the install? I am not mechanically inclined, but am happy to write the check to the guys that are, but I want LOUD horns. Too many times it would have proactively stopped bad situations.
