How's the pitch on the Stebel? Most airhorns I've heard over the web have a high pitch and I'm wanting a lower pitch sound. Maybe not possible?

The install was pretty straightforward, I am a carpenter so I had to learn what a relay is and take it one wire at a time. You have to buy about 20 - 30 bucks worth of connectors and wire from an auto parts store. Plan on about 2 hrs. if your electrical knowledge is like mine, which is zero. Whatever you do don't squat down beside it and reach up and mash the horn button , just don't do it. It isn't good lookiing by any stretch of the imagination but it will flat get people's attention. The tone actually two tones, not high pitched, about as good as you could ask for.

I installed the Mini Beast air horn which i believe uses a Strebel it was pretty much plug & play and is substantially louder than the stock horn.
