pretty much just the horns
if they overload the circuit, the fuse will blow. in that case all you have to
do is add a relay

No chit, just the other day some fuggin farmer in her truck cut into my lane while I was right beside her, I layed on the horn and she still didn't move back.

I'm guessing she didn't hear me because:
-my horn is not loud enough and she had the stereo blasting
-she was being a bitch and wanted to cut into my lane regardless
-she is an inbred born with no ears

so i dont like my horn anymore...nobody ever hears it....but i sure do like my g/f's TL horn...sounds like a sweeet trumpit....anybody know whats involved to covert it over....is it just the horns....???

I have the Triple air horns from Pep Boys. Theyre loud as ish! Easy to install, just need to find a bracket to mount the horns to. They sound nice too!

I was thinking about this the other day.

There's two horn buttons on the steering wheel. They should be wired to customised horns. I want one to say, "*******!" and the other to say, "Bitch!"

Anyone know if the Hella Supertone can be mounted facing downwards? You'd think it wouldn't matter, but my horns on the Pig sound a little funky since I moved them

BTW - I think BMW horns plug right in. I was going to do that swap on #009, but the dealership never had them in stock
