Yes, buy Hella Supertone horns. They're like $65. Then sit back and enjoy 118dB of power!

Interesting question. I don't know since I haven't tried it yet. Obviously I am not a horn blower. If I think of it I'll hit it the next time I take my car out.

I almost got run over by an SUV changing lanes. I laid on the horn, and slammed the brakes to avoid them. The horn was so unassuming that the lady waved at me, and smiled. :mad0259:

LoL. Kinda has the effect of a kids bicycle honker horn.

In smaller cars like this you need a loud horn. People just don't f***ing pay attention. I get cut off all the time in my MR2. Hence the installation of aforementioned Hella Supertones. The loud honkin' exhaust doesn't hurt, either ;)

I have one of those Wolo Bad Boy horns, and while the name is pretty stupid it works quite well. Loud, noticeable and easy to install.
