Air horn owners.....

I bought these things really cheap, thinking that it would be easy and cheap to find a compressor for them. Any idea where I can get one that won't cost me and arm and a leg? Also, what do these usually run?

Good compressors cost money. Check out the RPS classifieds for lowered guys getting rid of theirs.

These won't work with the ones that come with the red horns that you find at auto zone will they? I've had a few people tell me that they will.

Nope

A new tank/compressor/airline/ air valve is going to run you about $250+, unless you get some chinese stuff.
