    The only reason......ONLY reason I would do it would be for the moron who pulls out in front of me. Otherwise it is mostly kids who want them.

    I just want a REAL horn in my truck, not this little tooter that you can barely hear.

    I'm with you Matt, I want a horn that people will hear when they pull out in front of me. :eek:

    They absolutly would. First....It would make the Mail carrier reconsider what they deliver to me. Second, Im pretty sure that everyone who comes to my door needs a punch to the cranium. I think this worl would be a better place if people knew there was a chance that their mellon may get smacked. Of course......The impact force would have to vary. For example.....If they ring my door bell, they get a tap to the forehead. If they cut me off in traffic, they get hit so hard they forget who they are, and start sucking their thumb.

    And those are the ones Im aiming at. Fortunately for me, the local Mormon church people (I have nothing against them, as my Uncle is Mormon, but the locals try to convert me all the time) are finally scared of me. They dont come to my house anymore. But Im always getting someone trying to sell me Car wash coupons.

    In fact........I think I would want multiple fists on my truck. Sometimes I encounter Stupid in large quatities. The only thing I fear....If I made it Automated, it could punch me. I would have to install a safe gaurd.

    I am going to the junk yard next week. One of the items I will be picking up is a horn from a full size Caddy or Buick. Do you want me to grab one for you?

    Does anyone have a solid reason as to why I have to tap into my High beams when installing the Hella 500's?

    I am assuming that you will use the high beam voltage to power a relay that will switch the higher amperage 12V to the Hellas.

    You would only need to do that in order to force the high beams to be on in order to use the Hellas.

    When would you want to be able to turn on the Hellas?

    Whenever I want. I don't see the point in having to use the stock headlights when I will have 3-7 Hellas on if I need them.

    I will have 3 on the bumper and 4 on a headache rack/ light bar. So the need to have headlights off road is minimal.
