Horn is useful to beep at cars stopped at traffic lights with driver yacking on their cell while light changes. Or gun it but thats rude to everyone around you.

Buy an air horn and bolt it to the standard mount, wires attach directly to the new model and blast away. In Israel it is mandatory to have a horn for calling your friends out to play.

I bulked mine up so it actually can be heard. I removed the stock horn and mounted two Fiam's on it for the times when I can't reach my 45. It sounds like an old Buick now

I've had more birds flipped my direction when I have to use it that it funny.
