JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Put a Train Horn on the Jeep!

I got the Psychoblasters Horn Kit from Hornblasters. $309 shipped. I wanted to get the Shocker kit, but couldn't justify the price. But the one i got is LOUD. the video I posted does not do it justice at all.
It didn't come with enough air hose, so i'll be replacing it soon and routing it a better way. I have the horn wired right into the M22 fuse in the fuse box. So, when i honk the horn, it goes off. I also added in the supplied toggle switch so I can turn the horn off if necessary.

the horns themselves




where I mounted the horns (zip-tied to the crossmember, safe inside my RR XHD bumper, shown from underside)






you can see them peeking through the foglight hole




the compressor and tank. i want to find a new place for them, but cant really find a good place for it right now.




current routing of the air hose. it will be re-routed very soon though. going through the drain under the passenger seat, then up to the front.

Very cool, nice upgrade for the wimpy stock horn Are you worried about mud/water getting into the horn mounted there? I want to do this upgrade some day as well.
