air horn on a ranger
has anyone installed a semi air horn on their truck,I really want a horn that will wake up the guy in front of me sleeping at the light, the sound so loud like a semi truck the kind that would make the listner spill his coffee,
I understand a compressor would be needed ,how big and where would be the best location,I have a proffessional wire guy that will install,just curious if anyone else has sucessfully done this ,?

plastic air horns
Installed mine in the engine compartment. Easy to install. Most chain auto parts stores carry them.
Got em at Harbor Freight. They have others too.
Kit comes with everything, Compressor draws 30a or so. .
Ran a separate button inside, attached to the floor shift lever.
That's for quick access if one has to downshift quickly at the same time..
Coffee spill loud. Gets those suvs to snap back into their lane pronto, every time.
Hopefully has caused a dropped cellphone too.
Original compressor rusted out. Just bought another kit. Air horns= a must have.

Back in the 60's, went to grade school at 13/gratiot. Always loved to get big trucks to honk.
Wire a remote horn switch to easily find your truck at Lakeside or the Macomb Mall.
Bonus: Horn blast to set off all the car alarms in the lots like a good Harley does.
I also added a bac-alarm with a dash switch. Better safe than sorry.
Kids know what it is and go on alert (intended). Adults get confused by it.

looking at this horn setup on ebay would this be loud enough to scare someone?
