Horn is blown
Tuesday, April 05, 2005 2:21 PM
Exactly how hard is it to replace the horn? The dealership was going to charge me $150 to replace it, but I saw a horn at a store for $20. I'd prefer to do it myself if it's not too hard to do...I know where it's located and everything.

Easy. had to replace mine last fall. Mounting hardware was different on the new horn but everything fit in place. old one was surely rusted out.

Dennis.. yeah like those.. but harbor freight has those for around 14 bucks... i thought about trying those like that instead of the factory type horn.. factory horn wasn't loud enough for nothing.

i'd go for it...135 db has got to sound a lot louder than stock i wouldnt wanna be the person to piss you off enough that you crack that horn on me.. i'd like to see someone with a bagged setup run a full truck air horn off their tank/compressor, and somehow get the horns to point forward instead of burying it in the fender like the stock horn..

believe me i'd rather have other drivers mad at me instead of not paying attention n pull out in front of me like they do around here, all the time..... =) yeh i thought the exact same thing when i had airbags on my pickup one time... either train or freightliner horns or one of those wolf whistle that valves thru your exhaust instead of the electric type... i heard those are pretty loud...

if u really want loud, get the horns off of a ferry boat.. i think its called a foghorn, not sure though...thats about as loud as u can get i believe..i used to work at Bombardier in Barre, Vermont and we would have to test all the locomotive horns...those are pretty damn loud too..it definately gets your attention! as far as how people drive, i know how you feel.. i live about 15 mins from downtown charleston, sc..

I was able to get to mine just by jacking up the front end (by the oil pan ) a little bit for room, then just reaching under the bumper. I replaced with 2 horns, a low-tone and a high-tone from Autozone. Both are 138 dB.

I GUARENTEE you've never heard a J as horny as mine

Just why do we need a louder horn ? To get over your stereo or the kid next door?
I hate to buy a new house just so my windows don't rattle when one of the loud stereos come by. Here in St. louis, we are finely able to call the police on this type of problem.
They WILL be issued a ticket. Go to a park if you want to BLAST your stereo. Better yet, grow up and realize, you dont need to damage your hearing like that. Just to be like everyone of your friends. Just a thought.

You wrote 5 lines... only 1 pertains to this thread, the other 4 are pointless. Congrats, you can be a jackass and call the cops. Have you ever play b-ball outside? You can get the cops called on your for that too. Or ever yelled outside, yep cops can be called. Its called disturning the peace.

SHUT YOUR NEWB ASS UP and post things in the right forum, and stop wasting our time and website space with pointless @!#$ we all know anyways.

But, to answer your question... We need to put in a louder horn, cuz thats all we can find aftermarket after our stock one broke

So, whats your point jackass?
I cant post, or I have to stay with a pointless thread such as a LOUD HORN?
I ask a simple question. Whey have a loud horn. Note, I did add some of my thoughts, but does that gives you a reason to berate me. I think NOT !

You have a nice day also !

My point, Joe Horny, is that you are a newb and needs to learn that when there is a thread that EVERY person on it agrees, then you come along and disagree and start talking about calling the cops... we dont like you.
