I picked up a 125 decibel horn from New Speed 3. An easy change. It's considerably louder and doesn't sound so wimpy, but it could still be a bit louder to get attention of the idiot cagers. It's back is brass, but a little semi gloss black spray paint took care of that.

Horn

I hung a STEBEL Air horn from Girot's on CASPER and he loves it -it is loud! EZ install detailed somewhere on this site---worth the time and money to me!

I did the newspeed3 upgrade too... WAY better. Actually makes cagers jump (deer too)!! Super easy and cheap as well. Highly recommended.

I used black undercoating on mine... gives it a cool, cast look.

Hey, HiVel - where'd you put that Steibel? I was thinking of getting one, but haven't figured out where to hang it.
