Default Horn.

Has anyone replaced the Road Runner sounding horn with something a little more authoritative? I'm not talking a train horn, but something that will get you noticed and not laughed at.

Default Re: Horn.

BUMP!
I want a real horn too! Can't believe they put such a weak@ss piece of crap on my truck! How 'bout it guys? Any suggestions?
Just a regular but loud and more authoritative sounding horn. No air/train type horns. Thanx!
I'd like people to HEAR me and know there's a TRUCK behind them instead of a moped!

IMHO the 1st gen Tundra horns aren't all that either. Anyway, looks other Yaris owners over on another forum, have upgraded to Fiamm's or Hella's. Apparently I have to pull the whole front bumper to even get to the horn. Maybe a spring time mod.
