Twin blast air horn

Ok,

So, I picked up a dual blast air horn.. Looks pretty good.. Should, i just detach the original keep it where it is and install the new one?

If i were you I would probably put it on a separate switch so if you do end un having trouble with the police you can show them you still have a normal horn. It might not be a problem where you are but I know the police in Maryland, especially Ocean City cannot stand them.

Just my two cents.

Sounds like a recipe for a nice brake check OP, hope you got some upgraded brakes to go with it.

I actually don't find it all that amusing to begin with, but maybe that's just me and my age is showing. Potentially using it as a "gentle" reminder to folks doing 60 or pacing the same speed as everyone else while in the left hand lane on the highway -

Watched it a few years ago, still funny today.

Too many fake pranksters and fake reactions these days on youtube.

Out on the highway when a big truck starts over when you're already in the lane? Sure.

Guy ahead of you sits there playing with his mobile phone at a green light and a quick "beep" of the horn doesn't help? Absolutely. Same applies if you get someone who leaves too much space and you can't get into the turn lane.

But honking that sort of thing at pedestrians just to see their reaction? Stupid. The 3G TL has a pretty darn nice stock horn, IMO, and I use it very frequently in the DC area!

I think this is overkill, unless you want something that is more of a novelty rather than functional and reasonable.

I also don't like weak OEM horns. There are times you really need to tell someone to quickly "watch out!" or "MOVE!" I have the red Hella/Wolo style dual tone horns. It has just 1 compressor. It is more than loud enough and gets the job done every time. It's unique and has that "euro" horn sound.

Wolo Bad Boy is loud enough and I think about $30-40, I tapped it into the stock horn and it works fine. Definitely more noticeable but not gonna draw any unwanted attention.
