Default Anyone Install Louder Horns ?

The horns on my 2000 seam to be on the quiet side. I want to be able to send a jolt of terror to the person sleeping at the red light. My old Cadillac came stock with FOUR horns installed. That really shook'em up.

I hardly use my horn at all. Im deffinitly not one of those people
who blows the horn at the second a light changes, I dont mind people
crossing slow. hell im on wheels I can always step on it after they pass.
and the only thing I can remember using my horn for years ago
was to let friends know that we were out front to pick them up.
Now... hello ...cell phones



I cannot remember the last time I used my horn. nevermind what it sounds like.
but I do know I have 2

if you want a louder horn... check this out... http://www.hornblasters.com . while you're there, check out some of the videos. you'll probably pee yourself. but I was also looking for a louder deeper sounding horn, so i was thinking I might pick up one of the truck style horns at Pep Boys. I think they're like 30 bucks, but I don't know what they sound like. I also wish I could have that really awesome high-pitched *chirp-chirp* when I lock my car =(

Air Horns are very loud.
Those vids were hilarious. Really scared the heck out of those people.

Hmmm....I wonder if there is a way to tap into my rear ELC air system.....naw, not enough volume for a sustained blast.
