OOOOga horn, with question
I put an ooga horn on my Ranger yesterday, that sucker is really loud. I decided to keep the stock horn, so I ran the horn button through a toggle switch to select stock or oooga .... the grandkids love it. Question: When I was looking for a place to put my switch, I noticed a small white indicator light to the right of the instrument dimmer switch and below the tach. I have never seen it light and could not find it in my owners manual. I'm sure someone here knows what it is.

You don't mention a year and it's not in your sig. It could I assume be one of those flashing lights for an alarm (so everyone can see you have an alarm). If it never lights up and you don't have an alarm, I see no reason not to remove it and place your switch there. Another option would be under the dash where it's outta sight.
What's the link for that horn? I am interested. Thanks.

Does the indicator light look like an LED? If so, I agree with RangerPilot that it is probably for an alarm (some Fords use it with the PATS system, too).
Oooga horn is a cool idea, I'll have to suggest the idea to my friend, who is a Model A enthusiast.
