    I understand. But businesses can set whatever rules they see fit. Kind of like we set the rules in our own homes

    Got another story for you... Not related to photography but similar in some ways. This was back in 2008 or 2009 (pretty sure 2008). My aunt used to live in a single-wide trailer home. My Great Grandmother lived with her and she took care of her...

    One day my parents and I went to visit, in the 2004 Honda Odyssey EX they used to have. My dad parked the van in a space outside the trailer. In the summer of 2008 (or possibly 2007), while we were up in Maine at my grandma's lakehouse, my dad was hooking our 16-foot boat to the van's trailer hitch and accidentally hit the back bumper with the trailer tongue. This left a nice little crack...

    I got bored and went outside while parents and aunt were talking; Knelt down and started poking at the aforementioned crack in the back bumper, trying to line it up so it wouldn't be as visible; Next thing I know this huge middle-aged man with a shaved head and wearing a sleeveless shirt comes out and yells at me from probably five trailers away "Hey! What are you doing?!?!" He was giving me "the look."

    I stared him down and said "This is my van!" He then said "Where do you live?!?!" I pointed at my aunt's trailer and said "That's my aunt's trailer!" and then I casually walked up to the front door and went inside.

    I immediately told my parents and they said that the guy was just looking out for his neighbors, but ultimately took my side...

    Overzealous assholes like him are why I carry mace now...

    I agree with you, but this wasn't a mall cop staring me down; just some random guy... The fact that I have a clear and notarized title to the truck in my name overrules any opinion he may have about me taking pictures of it...

    And also, check out my Asperger's thread. Someone actually stole an Autism Awareness bumper magnet (like the image below) off my tailgate today:

    What do you think of that?

    Why would someone steal that? Of all things.. Why would you risk getting arrested for a bumper magnet?

    I wouldn't have called the police if I caught someone stealing a bumper magnet off of... I would have demanded that they put it back on the truck, then I would have told them that I'd better not catch them anywhere near my truck again...

    I mean I guess you could, but personally If I were stealing a bumper magnet and was caught I'd just take off

    Truth.

    I've seen Danzig live several times. Each time in a venue that itself allows photography, but during Danzig's set no pictures were allowed (which the ticket face said as well). Someone next to me was seen by security taking a picture. Security made him delete the picture and told him if it happened again he would be ejected.

    Someone drew a dick on my hood when it was covered in mud. Now it's scratched in. Can't catch them all

    That sticker may cause you more headache than not having it one day.

    I was never threatened with ejection, but I encountered BS like this at a minor league hockey game in November 2014 (Wheeling Nailers vs. Reading Royals; cousin's husband worked for Nailers at the time and got us free tickets; now he works for or Providence Bruins). Anyway, so I spent the better part of an hour snapping pictures of the game with my Nikon D5100 SLR. Out of nowhere, this middle-aged blonde woman (an usher, ticket-taker, whatever...) walks up to me and says that "Professional-style cameras with detachable lenses were not allowed." I was livid (I called her something I'm not proud of when she was out of earshot; NO, it was NOT the C-word), and everyone I've talked to about this thinks it's a stupid rule.

    Do you have a model name/number for the ones you have? The Stebel US website doesn't have sound clips but the Italian site does.

    Can you install that horn on the factory horn wiring and relay, or must you use the supplied relay and run seperate power?
