...Let the madness begin! The new horns will be installed on the 18th. I'll start around noon and work until I'm finished. I cannot wait until I get to test these on some SOB who likes to cut people off or tailgate...

So you gonna just mail off your old set up to me? lol

MWAHAHAHA!!!

These horns rock the concrete! Now, I have to make or find a custom grill. I was able to keep the stock manifold BUT...it looks hokie. I had to take the grill off of the front to aim it like I wanted.

I forgot that I had upgraded to 1/2" main from the old tank already, so there was no need to run any line. The hardest part of this whole deal was to place the horns.

Pictures to follow.

I think the laughter after the truck's horn says it all. The recording phone's mic can't begin to give you the "feel" of the horns. We had a complaint from the auto repair shop next door. They said something to the effect of, "you're shaking our walls with that damned horn!"

^Old Setup

^"Adjustment" of the OEM front crash bar. Thank you plasma cutter!

Now, I have to get the horns powder coated flat black and fit in a 2008 front grill and/or take out the OEM plastic "mesh". The air fitting is 1/4" too high to fit the OEM grill back on there. I've got a whole new trunk to construct. Three class D amps going in and a brand new processor...the factory programmer and I are talking and it seems that I'll be what is basically a beta tester for this piece. Oh yeah, all new 3 way speakers as well.

...I'll make it work...

That's what my wife called me.

Then I "horned" her. Love is grand!

roughed in test fit of the dual 400c:

Now I'll carpet the boards, zip tie the wiring, and work a "surround deck" to fit the old side panels in to make this trunk look sweet!
