do a google search for an airhorn kit and Im sure you'll come up with something. I never use my horn, I pass and let my pipes do all the talkin! lol, add a little finger in there and your good to go. Take it sleezy.

Noticed these the other day. More than I'm willing to pay at this time though.

Stick with my advice and you'll save yourself some money and you'll be alot happier with the overall performance of the loud pipes and the finger, lol and if you can throw a little black smoke at 'em to this just add's to the overall affects, you'll be rather pleased with the outcome! lol, good luck.

I just saw this today, http://www.sportsmansguide.com/searc...rch&k=air+horn
Some of them as low as $40. Maybe you could use one of these until you can afford a belt driven compressor.

hornblasters.com has some good kits. enginedrive compressor kits are a tough fit in our trucks. takes alot of fab work and creativity. im gonna put a york in my truck when i get a chance.
on hornblasters they have some videos of them goin down the road blasting people its great!!

i replaced mine with air horns off e-bay.... LOUD! gets attention! course my system is far from bolt on. fabbed it all my self including the 30' air hose reel mounted to the frame under the pass side bed to air up pesky leaky trailer tires 
i use my impact all the time with it and make sure i keep it with me. the york 210 keeps up impressively well esp in the high idle position. i am making sure it is gonna hold up long term so that i can run air bags!

i once saw a large electric horn that looked like an air horn at a garage sale years ago before i had the truck. guy said it was super loud, i don't know. now that i think of it i am going to search one out and see how it is.
