[B]Jeez, I couldn't resist responding here. Uses for horn outside of Bieg's definition:

1: Person in front of you sitting at green light. How are you going to "evade" that?

2: Person next to you changing lanes into yours (you somehow got in their blind spot) or even cutting you off. You are going to "evade" that off the road or into the person next to you?

3: Letting the carpool passengers know you are at their house and waiting out front.

4: *chirp* *chirp* Waving to a friend, out mowing his lawn as you pass by.

Ray,

When I had my horn installed, they ran a separate line from the compressor to the battery and a separate fuse. I think the Fiamms take more power than the stock Honda horn, so you might want to consider re-wiring it and having an in-line fuse.

I know some people have had problems with horn fuses blowing out before in the past.

Air Horns on an S2000.

Unbelievable. You probably had a bell and a big basket on your bike also.

Bieg, seriously man, we do not come here to listen to your preaching. We'll make sure to blast our Hella/Fiamm horns in your ear when we pass!

McGyver,

Am I to assume that you have a switch to toggle between the stock "Mr. Bill" and the aftermarket "Sluggo" horns?

In other words, do you now have two sets?

Thx,

Nah, just sayin' I should remove my horn altogether because Bieg thinks their useless. Next time I see someone pulling out on me without looking first I'll THINK really nasty thoughts at them...that should stop them from pulling out on me. From Bieg's point of view, I put myself in a situation where some idiot COULD pull out on me without looking, therefore it's my fault they did it. No need for horns ever, just some bad thoughts processes going on in my noggin' should solve it...

Personally, I prefer the dual air horns off a 1962 Kenworth 4600 Tractor-trailer, but they do have to be converted from six to twelve-volt.

Or you could hit your brakes.

Actually you guys have changed my mind on this horn thing. I saw this GREAT horn in JC Whitney! It has multiple tones and a controller box (that I will mount in the middle of the dash where the Japanese Nav system goes) that allows you to play songs like "La Cucaracha" and "The Girl from Ipanima". This will allow everyone to hear me driving down the road and would give me "horn parity" with all you enlightened ones.

Bieg: well, the consensus on this thread is that everyone either has no opinion about your ranting, or would rather you keep your flame inducing sarcastic comments to yourself. You seem to be a negative person. Put on a smile
Have a nice day
