Prohibited air horns --- that's one of those laws that is applied only when someone decides to use one to be as obnoxious as possible. If you use it only when appropriate I guarantee that you'll have no problem with the law.

disclaimer-that guarantee in no way obligates me to pay for any fines that you may incur in heeding my advice.

 

yeah..... i plan on making old ladies have heart attacks and young ones jump aboard.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 05-Feb-02 AT 02:10 PM (EST)]I’m on my second set of Hadley Bully air horns. These are the same system as the Ambassador horn mentioned above, but the 2 horns are slightly shorter (easier to mount under the hood or bumper). The first set left in my old F150 I sold. I had to have a set on my 2000 F350. Here’s the details on my install:
I wanted to mount the horns on the roof for maximum sound, but I would have a clearance problem with my slide-in camper. So I settled for behind the front license plate. It’s not quite as loud as the roof install would be, but there’s still plenty of noise. I just made a bracket to bolt them to the bumper that positions the horns behind the license plate. The compressor is mounted to a aluminum plate that’s bolted to the frame and radiator support below the battery. The air tank is on the left side of the engine compartment on a custom bracket. The nice thing about the air tank is that it has a shrader valve on it to hook up the included coiled air hose. I use the air supply to air up airbags/tires or once to blow crap out of a propane stove with a air nozzle I carry.
I wanted the horns to run off the stock horn button, so I just tapped into the horn wire in the engine compartment. I did install two switches in the cab. One of the switches disables the air horn if I want just the factory horns (good idea in MA apparantly). Otherwise, all horns blow together (although you can’t hear the factory ones over the Hadleys). The other switch in the cab allows me to turn the compressor off if I don’t want to listen to it run.

added on edit:
You can buy these horns at www.jcwhitney.com or at camping world.
