I have the air horns under my hood currently. I managed to get some 12" + chrome horns. I just don't know where to mount them. They won't fit under the hood and I don't want to mount them on the roof. Any suggestions?

peyton....
question for you... that horn you have mounted wouldnt happen to to be an airchime nathan horn...
as horn fan and owner of a nathan K-5-H i have an eye for these things... I would also add that mounting a nathan horn on your automobile is a federal offense and carries a hefty fine
BE CAREFUL!!!

I have no idea who makes the horn, it is mounted on a H2 that a local shop in ft lauderdale built. It is pretty nasty.

My air horns are not at large as your 12" trumpets, but I also was concerned about a good place to mount them. I found a useful area just behind the grill. I just fashioned an aluminum bracket to mount the horns in that area. It isn't pretty, but it does the job.
I just measured the distance between the vertical supports there and saw that it is 14" wide. You might be able to get those 12" trumpets in this area.
Also, if you can, try to get a slight downward tilt to the airhorn, to aid in water draining out, if it gets in there.
Good luck.

Absolutely, but I do like options, so I have two switches and a push button for my airhorn.
The push button sounds the airhorn, always.
One switch bridges the H2 horn button to the airhorn button, so pressing either will result in all horns going. That is the mode I normally leave the switch in. By flipping the switch off, then the horns are independent.
The second switch enables the “novelty” mode of the horn, the “turkey” mode. It is an annoying 3 note sound that is very attention getting. But I would only use it as a gag.
So, the normal position of the switches does get me the H2 horn and the airhorn “blast” of all 3 trumpets.
The switches are all mounted between the two air ducts in the top center of the dash. It is a clean looking setup.

Yup, and I agree with you there, too. I just thought that installing the tank and plumbing was a lot more work and money than I was willing to commit. But I do admire anybody who goes that route.
