Default upgrading horn

Does anyone know how to and what a good upgrade would be for my homosexual standard horn?

I've done a search but nothing came up.

I would like to have something with a solid loud blast, instead of a quiet youuuuuuuuhooooooooooo

Good times, thanks! Are they really beefy sounding? Also are they simple to fit? I'm terrible at anything like that.

Yeah mate they are a doddle to fit,no drilling needed.
They sound a lot better than stock but you will find plenty info if you google them.

Go for airhorns . Definitely get a listen of someones Hella Supertones first before buying if u can. I went from airhorn to hella and its an "interesting" sound they make.

Ahem...

No idea why people are obsessed with the supertones when you could fit an actual truck horn...

Maybe it's because they're not round and pretty.

That's what I'm on about! Would that be a direct swap or is that pretty hefty in size?

Well I managed to fit one on my Volvo! But then that was a Volvo and there was a LOT of space to play with. The dimensions might be on the site?
They're reeeeeeeally loud, you can really make people jump, if you're so inclined...
