How does the Hella electric horn sounds? What about the Hella air horn? Any of them sound like beemer's horns?

~$60, very loud. I don't know what a BMW sounds like but it probably is not as loud.

Did you use a relay and wire directly to the battery or main underhood fuse panel?

Used a relay. see: https://www.s2ki.com/faqs/faq_horn.php

YEAH!!! I think the s2k would look AWESOME with horns... You know, like on those caddies in Texas!!!!!

Maybe made out of carbon fiber tho.

I used a Hella horn that I got from Griot's Garage. They have two in their catalog, I got the cheaper one for $39.95. The other one is described as a "long range" horn with the sound pattern being more directional, rather than out to the sides. It did not come with a relay and I don't appear to need one. I just wired it directly to the stock horn lead.

The sound is loud enough that when I've blasted someone who's about to make a bonehead move towards my car, I've actually seen them jump.

I've got the Hella triple air horn Serious inner ear damage!! I hade to make a braket to mount all those horns on. TFota's heard it and I like it!

Here's the pair I installed, also from Susquehanna Motorsports, for about $30 with shipping. They're the city type, which is perfect for me since I seldom use the horn at a distance.
