Horn Change

[Marlin]

EtlSport--- Hmmm, I didn't know there was a "second horn" under the passenger headlight. What a installation nightmare. I'm gonna' keep my VX horn system 100% stock and not mess with it. Like my Dad used to tell me "If it ain't broke; don't fix it".

Don't be such a negative nancy, it is a 5 minute mod, once you get the front cladding off. There are two factory horns, and there is a ton of room under there for just about whatever you want. I went with the big dog dual tones, very easy to do, less than 40 bucks, and it sounds like a truck finally. I do dig the 18" tugboat idea though....similar to what I had on my offshore fishing boat...
With my new bumper and clovis pin mount, I will be able to do anything I want to the front, unlike you all with your silly plastic front end

cool! thats what i had originally, pretty much mounted exactly like that too.. but the horns were too high pitched, so i went with something deeper

Really :O maybe its stock on some vx?

I hardly use my horn. Tho if i had in anything next itd be a siren that i have lieing around

oh i meant originally.. as in my first iteration of my horn modding ive discovered my mods usually come in twos.. a get my feet wet kinda mod.. then a brilliant (or crazy) idea stemming from the first mod heh

first mod: 2 small air horns
second mod: 18" boat horn

first mod: upgraded cd player
second mod: cd/dvd/mp3 player and in dash monitor

first mod: small subs and amp
second mod: replaced all speakers, and added 2 amps

first mod: made plastic insert for switches over fuzzy hole
second mod: fiberglassed dash smooth and painted silver (later painted blue)

hehe

anyone know of a direct plug in replacement for the factory horn that sounds deeper than out tiny baby horn? where is our horn located anyways?

[MSHardeman]

There are actually two horns and they are both located behind the front cladding on the passenger side. I THINK there is one on either side of the foam "rib" behind the cladding. I actually moved them closer together when I located the ballast for my HID's right under the headlights behind the front cladding and the horn sounds awful now. The two notes are dissonant and they sound even worse when you get the two horns near each other.

how can TWO horns sound that wimpy?! it was bad enough when i thought there was only one girl smurf farting under the hood

I picked up a self contained airhorn from Harbor Freight for Boy's Samurai. It was an easy install & sounds pretty good.

You could just leave the OEM horns in place & wire an aftermarket horn via relay from the OEM. The aftermarket horn should drown out the OEM.

If the Fiamm air horn in the Rodeo ever dies I'm going to go back to all electric and hit the pull and pay and grab a set out of a Volvo V50/S40. They are made by Fiamm and VERY loud.

Dual Air Horns Are The Way To Go !

To this day, still never found a valid solution for the Supertones. They would look great peeking through the grille....

Ive always wanted an Airhorn in stall, this makes me want to look back into it
