I replaced mine with a reproduction road runner horn. The only thing you need to do is run a ground wire for it. THe factory plug works with it

Air horns mounted just behind the front bumper up behind the fog lights wakes em up and gets em going. cut off the factory connecter in the wiring harness and use "wire nuts" to make the connections.

I got mine off ebay. Yes it is the beep beep horn. The OEM versions are rather pricy for a horn, so I went with a reproduction. Here is one I found real quick.

So where do you folks find air horns to go on your daks? I've been saying for years I need an air horn loud enough to make every senior citizen for 3 miles have a heart attack when I use it. Are the air horns in question loud? How much are they?

Auto Zone and Meijer's (kinda like a KMart or Wallmart with groceries, hey Wall Mart may carry them too)carries them as do other auto parts stores. Get the Faimm brand with the red horns, the blue ones are way too high pitched for my taste . Thhese come in a 2 trumpet model they also make a 3 trumpet model that the extra horn is a bit longer and a little deeper in tone for those that want it. I lost my first set in a wreck but managed to salvage the compresser, I am running two compressers and the sound is louder then with just one, much to my neighbors dismay.
