I'd go with the hella's. They're easier to locate behind the grill and wire up. I installed those air horns in a friends car, and they were very loud, but I didn't like the high pitched air horn sound; it sounds more like the canned air boat horns than a mack truck.

Hella Supertones.

Air horns sound like Cheech and Chongs ride.

Roach coaches have air horns. Ones I've seen down here play "La cucaracha" when they pull up on job sites.

Personally, I'd go with the Hella Supertones. If wired correctly, they're loud as Hella!

Forget those horns. You want some bad azz horns get Image Dynamics with the chamillion componet set. Ear bleeding.
