Nikko Horns

My stock horn is....well, crappy. I want something louder so I can actually be heard by people in cars. I was wondering if anyone has tried this horn from Z1: www.z1enterprises.com/Nikko-Horn-12V3A-Chrome-9.aspx or if anyone had any other suggestions. I'm not looking to break the banks and i'm not looking for air horns. Thanks!

Haha, I have a friend with some of those in his grand marquis, they are LOUD, and pretty awesome. But i just want an easy replacement, since I don't really have the time or money to go with something that...elaborate.

Then 1 time in 1978 I put dual Fiamm horns on a KZ 900.
It melted the horn button in about 1 second!
Too many amps.

Some lessons are hot! I just ordered dual Fiamm Freeway Blaster horns for my Voyager. Less than 20 bucks for 1 high and 1 low note from Amazon.com. The ad is deceiving. There are 2 different part #'s for the 2 horns. For a single I'd order the low note. For a dual use a relay. 130db. Very loud!
