Electric Horns
What electric horns are you using? I want something loud and electric and reasonably compact. My hot rod truck will be a 12vdc negative ground system. I found these but I'm not sure I like the sound.

I like the Wolo horns The ones you have cited are more like the Euro-style horn and do not have the rich tone sound. IMHO

hella's sound like a Prius horn..... cute and girly
Piaa's were like an import horn
Wolo's were louder but monotone... you need tuned horns (plural)
I agree with tudor.... salvage yard... truck horns or find a coupe/sedan deville those old caddy horns are the bomb.
I'm still looking for a deal on train horns but can visualize where to mount the compressor/tank and horns...

I've done a little more research on Cadillac horns. Ross the Caddy sound you are looking for is from the big cars (I don't know what models) is actually from a set of four horns and are musical notes of A, C, D and F. You can buy complete, reconditioned sets of all four with a warranty for around $90.00.

If memory serves me right, most all of the upscale GM cars had great sounding, loud horns. I believe the dual and triple tone horn was an option on some models. This includes six volt cars dating back into the 40s and 50s. I remember a particular1950 Buick that I was privy to ride in once in a while. having a horn that sounded with authority and a great radio.

Not quite authentic, but this gives the idea:
