Air horns

[craigvk]

I am wanting to upgrade my horn because it's more to suit a mini more than my VK V8. Doesn't sound mean enough

Who here has those twin air horns? The red looking ones.
I have seen them in Autobarn and I don't know what they sound like and I want to know before I pay $35 for a set. Would anyone here be nice enough to upload an audio file of their air horn sound. Like if you could record the sound of the horn being pushed a few times?
The pic below is the one I'm thinking of getting. Should I get a triple horn instead?

Thanks. :hit:

Just do it.

You won't be disappointed.

Personally, I wouldn't go for the triples. Two is more than enough.

My current horn sounds more like *BEEP. BEEEEEP*
Like I said, it more suits a dang mini.

What I want is something that sounds like a truck horn, but not that loud!

Well don't get those ones, from my recollection those have more of a "toooot" sound. Had them on my car

Great. My brother has a 2005 Astra and when he lets off his horn, it's very loud and makes me jump sometimes. I called Holden and they want 50 bucks for the horn as a Astra part. Just wondering if it would bolt up without a problem. I don't see why not though.

Go to a wrecker and get a pair of late model Calais horns. They beat the crap out of the stock Commodore horns.

Otherwise, the airhorns you're looking at for $35 are pretty good value. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. I had some similar to those in an old Corolla once. Used to scare lots of people. hehehe...

Ok, thanks man. I will go to Autobarn sometime next week and pickup the pack. I hope they are good! Cheers. :drink:

How do air horns go if your factory alarm uses the horn for the siren??
