Train Horn

which kit did you get? I have been looking at them but unsure which one I will go with. Looks to be a great company and installs look good. The only down side would be if you had Amp power steps.

I had a horn blasters set before. The shocker xl. Crazy loud. I just ordered the horns from them and bought a Viair compressor and a 5 gal tank separately.

I just installed my Kleinn kit, as OP hasn't posted photos or video. I'm still working on making the video, but here are some pictures:

 

I really liked how everything was able to be installed with minimal destructive work required. The only thing I had to modify was the panel where I installed the switch. Everything else went in clean and I didn't have to break the truck.

I had one several years ago had a lot of fun with it,whenever I pulled up at red light and beside or behind someone with one of those vibrateing stereos I would let er go, they would turn it off

I would love to blow one of those horns at people texting. That would be crazy fun. However they would probably run off the road or crash into someone and then it would be my fault.....Still fun though.

I've often had this thought myself. I'm about to head out on the road for a 30 minute drive. I'll probably have that thought at least 15-20 more times before I stop.

Update for those who need some info on the '17 HD Denali.

 

  • Remove the driver-side fog lamp.
    • The trim ring has 3 squeeze tabs and the lamp assembly pops out (3 ball pins)
    • Unclip the wiring harness and put lamp aside.
  • Reach in and to the left to find the Horn harness.
    • This can be easier to see by removing the grill.
  • I used a weather proof tap to connect to the brown horn lead.
    • I was unable to unclip the horn harness from the horn... I could undo the safety catch, but just couldn't get the clip off the horns.

 

I hope to finish the airlines today and give it a test. I ended up running an aux line to an air chock block in the rear of the truck bed for inflating tires, etc.

Or...touch it off behind one of those dudes on the silly loud Harleys just when the light turns green, fun times.

    • Hey everyone,   For anyone looking at roof-mounted lighting for the Hummer EV, we wanted to share our M&R Automotive 50" PRO Roof Light Bar for the 2022+ GMC Hummer EV.   The curved 50" bar sits close to the windshield rather than sticking way up above the roofline. The mounting position is designed to keep the setup relatively streamlined while minimizing wind noise and maintaining full use of the factory windshield wipers.   A few details:   50" curved PRO light bar Fits 2022–2026 GMC Hummer EV Spot + driving beam pattern TIR optics White main beam Amber DRL backglow Approximately 15,410 measured lumens through the lens Mounts to factory accessory locations No cutting or drilling required Wiring runs down the A-pillar toward the AUX connections Designed to minimize wind noise Lifetime warranty Off-road use only     The 50" is an interesting middle ground for anyone who wants the visibility and mounting position of a roof bar without stepping all the way up to the larger 60" setup. For the Hummer EV owners here, would you go with the 50" for the lower-profile look or step up to the full 60"?  
    • My son got a hatchback withe the aero package for like 17k new. Great little car with amazing MPH
    • Yeah, I've given up years ago with that! I was able to load a few when I first joined the site sometime around '07. Then after maybe 20 pics, it said I exceeded the limit. Now every pic I try to post says I've "exceeded 1mb".   ONE MB??? That's Windows 95 ******, lol!! 
    • I get the same results with pictures. Then I figure it out. Then I forget. Screw it.
    • I guess I'm the only one on this forum who can't get effing pics to load here! Do you have to resize them to post, or am I just blocked from uploads?   I have the same luck with automotive electronics ... but this is the ONLY site on the net that I have this problem!   I'd post pics of what I'm working on ... but I CAN'T! 🤬       Just fabbed up the kickdown cable (had to extend the cable mount WAAAY out from the throttle shaft to get a full pull), and parts arrived for the fuel lines on the 940 carb conversion project. Should be able to drive this thing by the end of the day. If not for work, I'd have had this thing done SIX weeks ago.   Got the jetting sorted out last week. Had a real bad tip-in bog that I couldn't seem to correct. Friggin float height was over 11mm too HIGH! eBay purchase, so no wonder everything is screwed up right out of the box! I ended up with a larger dual-squirt accelerator pump jet anyway instead of the single. Also moved the 70 primary idle jet (4 sizes too big out of the box) to the secondary idle circuit, and installed a 57 in the primary. Runs great on the fuel bottle!    Still using the computer for ignition. Going to drive it first and see if I want to go through the project of installing an intermediate shaft with a distributor drive gear, so I can install a block-mounted distributor and run points, 100% computer free. I should do that anyway just from a simplicity / reliability / tunability standpoint. The electronics left me stranded last year a couple times! I can't tweak the timing to my liking right now because of the computer. Tried twisting the cam-driven distributor already ... and the damned thing just reverts back to where it was! That's infuriating. But if it runs well enough I might save that for next season.   Just driving it in and out of the shop to work on other projects, it feels 1,000% more responsive with the carburetor. Also fires MUCH faster when cranking. Can't wait to drive it and see if I got more than 114 ponies, lolol.   Hopefully these don't go 404 like the last post ... https://postimg.cc/gallery/MjhrmZS   Seems like that site went back to dial-up internet! Maybe they'll fix that some day ...
