Cool New Horn Location

well as all of you might know, the horn in the car is so useless and sissy that your better of poking your head out the window and yelling "HONK" so me being who i am need something a little beefier, so im going with this, i ordered the 0.5 gallon 150PSI air tank last night. i have 2 mounting ideas, i need your input and ideas of any other places.







Thanks, Mike

I don't use the horn, just put a finger out the window instead.

Back on subject

Seriously, Since it is looks cool, I would put i under the hood where it can be seen and direct the sound through the front grill. Top of one of the wheel wells maybe?

the horn is about 15 inches long, probably less, just off the top of my head, but its about that big. i have tried under the hood but i still have to mount airlines and stuff. and there isnt much clearance, except where i have it in the picture

If the two positions in the photos are the only place it will fit, I would go with the first one. Did you try between the fuse box and the fender on the drivers side?
