    I laughed so hard my GF got mad. I'm going to repost this in r/toyota if you don't mind.

    I wish I knew the brand of my horn, but like the sig says, I didn't install it. It's pretty good. It's not obnoxious loud like many horns but it will scare a person if i'm right behind them. I take it for granted since I've never had the OEM horn. Although, I went through some deep water and my aftermarket horn stopped working for a while, and it sounded so weird. The alarm went off and I couldn't figure out what was happening.

    Loved the video and the new horn!

    Toyota vastly improved the horn on the second gens.

    Great mod. Great vid. My horn embarrasses me enough that I never use it right now. Did you ever think about grabbing a horn from a wrecked 2nd gen? (just wondering)

    At my local liquor store. If you don't want to make the trip to Lawrence and Milwaukee in Chicago, you can look for it yourself.
