I want these so bad for the Rabbit. Do what you do best Oppo and encourage this, bad but entertaining decision.

I had an air horn on my bronco and never regretted that choice. Couple gallon tank for when I really wanted to lay on it - which was always. Do it.

I could use some air horns.

Too small. Get this instead:

Might prove useful if you wish to resurrect a recently deceased loved one .

They need one that plays the synth riff from "Africa"

first line from that page is

Public notice: honking train horns at unsuspecting pedestrians makes you a douche. Funny, but still a douche

The real question is why haven’t you already?

I’d have these on my truck if they weren’t 3 feet long and needed an engine-driven compressor to feed enough air.

they are extremely loud.

I need to research how hard it would be to do an 1812 overture set. Since there doesn’t appear to be one.

I follow a Japanese guy on IG who makes custom music horns for DekoTora trucks. But everything is in Japanese so it’s not super helpful but still pretty cool. Basically you make a disc with holes in it. You have air pressure on one side of the disc,  and and a motor to spin it in the middle. so when the hole lines up with a horn the sound plays.

The first ten notes of 1812 are played on four notes, I believe, so would require only four horns and a fairly short cycle. La Cuc aracha is ten notes on three for a simple version, more for something more complicated, and Dixie is eleven notes played on 3-5. It would be pretty easy to set up with a standard set if they were the right key... or if you transcribed it from Eb, though that might not sound right. The best of worlds would be to have 6-7 electrically managed air horns so you could play more of the verse... or all of it.

The point at which you added a cymbal for the crashes and something like a tuba for the God Save The Czar counter-melody... that might be the point of going too far.

I’m starting to contact local salvage yards to see if anyone has the old 4-note Cadillac horns. I want to change out the wimpy single tone horn my wife’s car currently has.

Jokes aside, this is a European car and it deserves a European horn.  I doubt there is one of those in existence that is capable of scaring Americans.  If anything they are usually so quiet and polite you struggle to hear them inside modern well insulated cars.  Or over the rumble of farm truck tires.

If you want a wimpy American horn, GM (and some Chrysler products ) has you covered throughout most of the 90s.

I love that you had th e additional capacity of an  air tank. Epic. There wa s a guy in my area with an Acura TL with a train horn hidden behind the rear bumper. Jebus that thing would scare the shit out of you.

No just the capacity, but that space was in the center console. It was quite a large console imo. I wanted to make sure it was safe and dry.
