Okay, where can I get a really good air horn for my H2...someone installed one on theirs I remember way back from this forum.

I actually have kids pull their arm like a trucker wanting me to blow my horn. I guess they think it's going to be loud or different than any other SUV.

Would love to have it for novelty and function on the highway.

Amy:

Hadley Horns has some great air horns. Real Wheels has the Hadley Big Bully Air Horn set up for the H2. I have the Big Bully and when some pencil neck in a civic trys to cut you off... Blast em and they get out of the way! The kids love it too, you can get the air horns with the Lanyard (cord you pull)

Go to the H2 Source online store, Exterior accessories, Real Wheels, link to their site, Specialty products or something like that and you will find them there. Be sure to check with Jason he can probably get a little better deal.

Maybe Jason can add the air horn kit to the online store. Should save us a few bucks...

A group purchase would not be a bad idea...

I need an airhorn. But I'll tell ya', there isn't much that does more good than just getting so close-up the the freak in front of you can only read the "MM" in your grill in their rear-view!!!! They seem to consistantly think to themselves "holy hell, I now reallize my place on the food chain".

DO NOT GET THE HORN FROM 4WHEELDRIVEACCESS!!!!!! if you are serious about a horn!! take it from someone who has a nice setup.... ask the guys who went to the NY dinner... I will be posting pics soon!!! I would not get that horn... I would never get the tank that they have... too small... I would only get that compressor.. you can order individual parts, tanks, compressors, air line, ect.. from COMPONENT PARTS in Indiana. I would get the horn from wolo... or maybe a longer hadley horn. THe length of the horn defines the pitch... the 4wheeldriveacc horn is too short and hence give a high shrill sound... really sucks. more like an ambulence that is all.

Wolo makes a nice dual horn with a bit deeper pitch... and is not too long... if you want that real deep sound, truely trucker... you have to get a hadley horn, a nice 30 incher.... you will have hard time mounting... but would be nice...

A real horn... We installed a REAL set of Leslie train horns on my fathers last pickup. These things were huge and a little loud There were 3 various length horns, with the longest one about 30" long. We installed a ballvalve at the base of the seat. Now that was a loud horn.... Since he sold it, we took the horns off and installed them on our fire departments tanker.....that gets traffic splitting.

As requested, the Air Horn is now available thru the online store at the H2 Source.

Quick Link:
http://www.h2source.com/2961ahk.htm

Cost is $360 plus approximately $20 for freight.

This horn also doubles as an onboard air compressor.

I have read your objection to the realWheels set up before, but it looks Sooooooooo Easy to install. Can you provide details on your set-up:

- Wolo model
- Compressor and other required parts
- Install specifics

I am definetely installing a new "truck" air horn, do NOT want a siren sound, but need some guidance as I am a novice on this topic.

Thanks

P.S. Jason can you get a different Hadley horn set with the RealWheels mounting set?

Centerfire 11-04-2003 06:13 PM

I am sure this has been mentioned before. However if you want a loud novelty horen.. Get a 200w siren box with the air horn feature. Jusat do not use other then the air horn feature,, I have this feature on my vec. with twin horns.. it takes up much less use.. You can have it wired idrectly into your horn buttin and simple keep the knob turned to air horn.. I have used this feature for years. it draws as much attention as the siren, new phaser, yelp etc. as any setting on my siren.
Just a thought.

Mike,

I've got the FedSig 100w with siren box. Same units that Jax Sheriff's Office use. The 100w, weatherproof, horn speaker is super loud and takes up hardly any space behind the mesh grill, and...It fits the truck's personality perfectly.

Centerfire 11-04-2003 10:36 PM

That unit works great too.. Not sure what I have in my vecs.. I do know that they are 200 w..I will have to look at the squack box and see. Now all you need is to put another horn out back .. We run with too siren horns on all our LE vec..

It adds a bit of depth to the sound and warns drivers to the side and back out you.

Mike
