For awhile I had them hooked up with the horns, but after I got rid of the OEMs I just capped off the passenger side real good. then ran the driver side one to the air horns solenoid.

I'm definitely doing this. About to place the order lol. Hopefully my wiring for my oem horn is good because i haven't had them working for a long time now and never diagnosed why. funny part is that it halfway beeps quietly when i lock the truck with the remote... sometimes. but pressing the wheel never works.

LOL.. I just have to get off my butt and get some parts.. We have no trains here in Juneau AK, no roads in or out.. I think it would be funny to go somewhere and blast them off a few times sounding like a train at a crossing.. The sound will bounce all over the mountains and all down the valley to town.. PPl will be like WTF a train in the mountains lol..

I really dont care what the police say.. let them come and try to find me. How am I harming anyone when back up on some mountain road,, its not a crime to honk a horn..
the tour ships that come to Juneau sometimes get into horn blasting battles and all of Juneau rocks..

Im just going to honk my little ****ty horns...lol whats the harm?

This is just one ship honking all morning every time they come in.. when there is two in town they do that damn horn battle.

this is a Disney horn battle,, this is what they do here in Juneau while they leave port going down the channel leaving town.

Spectre/K&N no longer sells them as a kit. you have to piece and part them together.
