Finished up wiring the air horns to the solenoid and installing the push button switch. Didn't quite fit the way I wanted it to behind the dash so I used my cut-off tool and trimmed away a little plastic. Had to chase down a couple electrical gremlins with bad grounds but she blows loud and hard. Now I should get peoples attention on the road

15$, took about 2 hours to wire up but I did it the way I wanted. Set them up to run on key power so no one can set them off on me without power being on Lol. I can get a vid tomorrow after work.
