This doesn't
always work, but...
I have a TapTurn with the strobe pack installed in my car, with LED tails (Tom's). I have my hazards set to strobe, and if you turn them on with the turn signal stalk clicked to the right, they go into a wig-wag strobe pattern like on an emergency vehicle. When I get a tailgater, I hit my strobes. Probably 6 or 7 out of 10 drivers will be confused by that and back off. It worked a lot better when I lived in Louisiana, but Texas is filled to overflowing with assholes, and many of them just don't give a shit what you do.
I have a set of Hella Supertones I haven't gotten around to installing in my car. I was thinking of taking the stock horns and hiding them up under the rear bumper with a separate horn switch and relay so I could honk at the tailgaters.
