Default Replacement horn ideas
I'm looking for a replacement horn, that's hopefully plug and play and preferably not one that sounds like a clown car horn lol

Try a horn off of an Oldsmobile or Pontiac. I got mine off a Buick that had a nice "road horn " sound. like a low grumble. $5.00 for both at the pull a part

Yep, The old heavy iron from GM (don't forget Cadillac) had some pretty good horns.

I've used dual Fiamms for many years, put them on everything except the truck didn't need it. Probably saved my life a few times on the bikes, a real waker upper.

I bought a 4 note horn set from an old Cadillac. I haven't installed them yet. There are utube videos of what they sound like.

I installed these last year and I'm happy with the loudness and sound of them
