www.jcwhitney.com they have both electric and air powered horns. If you don't have an air system on your vehicle, just go with the electric one. ------------- There are 3 kinds of people in the world, those who can count and those who can't

o my god that would be the perfect alarm. that gave me a grate idea. and for all i know you could be doing gust this. you could set it up so if somebody brakes into your car the horn would go off that would make him loss his hearing and would scare the crap out of him.
but be careful that horn can easily cause an accident.

Not to mention the COMPLETE illegality of it!

it would not be illegal as a security system, it would probably be illegal on the road though

It would be illegal through noise ordinances alone.

Trains are very much different then cars. Trains need them to warn anyone near by that they are coming. Don't try to compare.

haha funny. NOT. I have one question for you. Why the hate? Really mature, man. Really mature. ------------- It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

What are you going to do when you screw around and hit it when there is some old person around and give them a heart attack? Or what are you gonna do when you do it to the wrong person and they pull a gun? Or even better, what are you going to do if you do it and there is a cop around???
This is a very bad idea.

I agree 100%. It is people like you who give "boom-thugs" the name. The 1% of morons out there give the other 99% of us a bad name. Noise ordinance are all ready tough enough. We really don't need anyone making them tougher.

If the cops don't nail you, maybe some "ghetto" person who lives in the ghetto will beat the piss out of you or worse. Think about this before you follow through. As cute as this may be, it is really immature. I once had a PA sytem in my car and all that led to was a police conferntation. Spend your time and money on something more constructive. -------------

Not funny. My friends and coworkers will tell you I'm not a person you'd want to do this to. Now, will somebody please lock this thread? ------------- My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

lol this funny as eva man.....I gotta get me one of them train horns for my car....After all teh purpose of life is to live it up before you die cuz once you die, your gone. ...and if you dont have fun now...then you lived a pityful life

No security system can beat the tow truck :(

eva = ever (I think)
cuz = because (again, I think)
your = you're, a contraction of "you are". NOT showing any ownership in this use. (pretty sure on this one)
pityful = pitiful (confident I am correct here)
Perhaps SOMEONE might have, or should have, paid more attention in school. (No child left behind, don't you know... Thank you, "Dubya") I know I will not be leading a pitiful life, and I dont need a train horn for playing immature pranks on unsuspecting, innocent by-standers. The fact is, I could die TONIGHT, and not regret anything, with the exception of not spending more time with my wife. I have lived a full and complete life, and have done most all I have ever done to the best of my ability.
Here is part of what is wron with society today. Few believe they have to take responsibility for their actions.
OK, Dave, off the soapbox...

That would be annoying. Like those coffee can muffler tips they speed up and slow over and over. but when I have my fury and they do that I pull up next to their window put the car in neutral and stomp on it. That gets them to stop. now if someone had a horn like that and did that to me. They would have to go see a doctor to get it removed. now that would be funny

You know, if this thread indicates the maturity and intelligence level of some members, all I can say is grow the F*** up and I hope the cops nail you soon. Or join the army and go blast train horns at people who will shoot back. Thread is locked. ------------- Support the12volt.com
