    Oh yeah I wasn't expecting it too haha, I was just saying if you absolutely wanted the closest thing to a train horn, 8 Cadillac horns will do it. Don't get me wrong 4 sounds like a train already - 8 just makes it even more intense.

    I am interested if you think these will be pretty much plug and play for a 2nd gen? Stock horn is so wimpy compared to these!

    These horns will work on any vehicle where the stock harness sends a 12v pulse to the stock horn when you press the horn button. The one exception is that this is only plug-n-play for 1st gen Tacoma because I designed the bracket with the 1st gen valence in mind - it mounts to the center vertical radiator support lower bolt. I cannot confirm fit on other cars - but since this is a pretty universal bracket it'll mount mostly anywhere you have space.

    I will also offer these without the bracket (with the stock Cadillac brackets), and a different variation of bracket where two horns would be welded to two flat pieces of steel and where you'd mount two horns on each side of the truck (this is how it's mounted stock on Cadillacs)

    So here are the 3 different horn setup variations I'm offering to accommodate however you'd like to mount these.

    Who are these people that blow horns? If you need anything more than a stock horn that's when a sawed off should be going out the window.

    This is just a solution to improve the stock horn. The stock horn Toyota put on these trucks are very underwhelming and not as loud as they should be compared to other trucks on the market. Since these horns were found in existing U.S. regulated vehicles, they do not exceed any illegal sound limits or the such.

    These add a level of safety as the different tone and added volume is more beneficial when having to alert other drivers or warn others of danger.

    I used to think the same way. BCP......before cell phones. I think a loud tap is better than a laying on of "meeeeeep".
    Besides mine is starting to sound like the one in "Little Miss Sunshine"

    The second gen horns are better than 1st, but with the huge increase of complete fucking retards dicking with their phones excessively and not using hands-free systems, along with the exploding population of lost imbecile Uber/Lyft fucktard loser drivers clogging green lights and traffic flow everywhere every day, this upgrade may be in order.

    Two would be nice, but perhaps consider another 4-horn set up option with a specific purpose: lateral asshole targeting.
    2 facing forward
    2 facing left and right respectively, so I can blast retarded assholes sideways when I pull alongside to flip them off for their uncivil fuckery.

    The goal is to try to deafen oblivious fucks on cell phones who are not paying attention to the road and other drivers, and perhaps cause them to leave an unplanned deposit in their skivvies to drive home their transgression against humanity.

    I can weld the horns to the bracket in any configuration you'd like if you request it.
