Would any car alarm/custom/car fabricator place be able to do it?

Any ideas what something like this would run for install?

I want it hooked up to replace my regular horn, no need for any extra switches, etc...

Thanks in advance!

I would think you might be able to tackle that yourself with minimal effort. Otherwise, I think any auto shop would be willing to make $30 - $50 from you;)

I would love to, but living in a townhouse with an anal HOA, the second i put my car up on jack stands to get to the current horn, i would have a $100 fine.

They even fined a neighbor for washing his car.

You have a friend who doesnt live under HOA regs? Do you have a garage?

Not really, everyone i know down here has similar restrictions unless you have a garage, which unfortunately no one i know has :D

Nevertheless, $50 wouldnt be bad, im assuming they could indeed hook up the air horns to replace the stock squeeker, right?

I dont see why it couldnt be done. The $50 bucks was just a guess;)

It shouldn't be that hard to hook up. The only issue I can see besides finding room to mount it is it might require more current than the horn circuit can provide. In that case a separate 12v line that can provide more current would need to be run. Any decent mechanic should be able to do this though, and a stereo/alarm shop should definitely know how.

car fabricator FTW of a $25 air horn!

post your make and model and maybe we can walk you through it, but if you got $50-60 to burn, take it to an installer.
