Domestic horns makes your car sound like it weighs 4000 lbs.

I'm assuming it's just a simple wiring thing to install these things right? I really like this idea.

Yeah, I just installed them close to the original horn(s) and used the original wiring from the japanese made unit so it would still have a connector for removal. You could probably get what you need from any pull-it-yourself junk yard for $10.

I would get the Supertones if they weren't so noticeable in the front grill. That, and all the Subie guys do it so it's almost played out. I hardly honk the horn anyway, and I'm sure you can barely hear it over my exhaust.
