Default Question on installing horns

I am wanting to install an air horn as well as a dixie horn(possibly replacing the air horn with a train horn down the line). Would I be able to have them both in my truck at the same time with separate buttons and units while being connected to the same battery? If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks

If you are asking if this is possible, that would be one of the easiest electrical mods to complete. You could connect 400 horns with their own buttons, as long as the alternator and battery can keep pace with as many horns as you'll engage at once, whether they be electric or needing to run an air compressor, you'll have no issue.

I run a Big Bad Max, Bad Boy, and one of the oem horns off the steering wheel switch.
