Hi, as the topic. My car's horn sound like a baby crying. I dont know if it's broken or something. it's like you wont hear my horn if you are listening to your radio in your car. so, what brand should i look for and what is the reasonable price?

I hear the hella dual tone air horns are pretty decent, theyre like 35 bucks or so.

I think one of the members here has them too.

I bought a 140 dB air horn off ebay for $35, loud as hell and simple to install. It's all self-contained (compressor and horns) in one unit.

Search for "140dB" in ebay motors...
