Default Horn Tech

Well i work shipping and receiving at work and i see and here alot of huge trucks and see their mounted horns on top of there cabs.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...0006&viewitem=

this is one ive seen and personally really liked the sound of it when i used it. besides the compressor what else do i need to hook this up?

also i was thinking of spraying them black, putting a cover over the top of them in the engine bay (making it harder for the law to find it if they pop my hood) and making a small switch on my center console can be labelled "normal and air" or something of that nature. wiring beyond the steering wheel so that i can use the steering wheel of the air horns or the normal horn with the flip of a switch i personally hate how low and soft the horns are on our ef's. anyone else ever think about doing anything like this?

I bought a Bosch horn at Autobacs for 20$, Believe it was called Ralley Evolution or something like that, it's extremely loud and sounds like nothing i've heard before. Doesn't sound like any import that's for sure.
Think it's like 80 or 90db.

Yeah lol
It's actually more of a solvent.
You don't spray it on, you apply it.
You can have it for 20 if you want it.

Nope!
haven't tried it, my brother bought another one for his tC fogs we are going to try it soon.
Looks pretty easy, though instructions are in japanese.
This is more of a light tint though, if you want a dark tint like the fogs i showed you, you have to buy Krylon Stained Glass paint.
