118dB loud enough for you? My neighbour ordered a pair of
these Hella Supertone horns.... It's so loud that semi-truck
driver can hear you doing 65mph.

go to 4wd.com and check out all the horns they have there...any custom install shop could do it. Its not that hard. i have done it many cars. If someone can install an alaram they can install the horn. You might want to check the laws though. I am almost sure there is some law about how many db your horn can produce

DON'T. the new horn will burn the wire harness - which can cost you $1,000 new and more than that if you need someone else to replace it for you.

you have a short or a weak ground somewhere
remove the horn and battery and connect the horn directly to the battery. the + goes to the horn, the - goes to the metal if it seems to have only one (instead of two) electrical contacts.
if it doesn't blow replace it with the OEM (not the chinese scam company OEM - i mean orig. equip. mfg. part)

if your an idiot don't do the above. if you mistakenly connect the terminals with, say a dropped screw driver by mistake, it will turn to molten steel and melt - and possibly explode the battery.

check if you have two horns (some work in pairs. technology sucks - and costs more!)

Just open up your window and yell real loud. Problem solved and it didn't cost you a dime. You're welcome.

Just go 2 the junk yard. Know ur car's make, model & year. The junker will show u where there's 1 like urs. Horns R pretty easy 2 get out. Swap the bad horn 4 the junk horn.
