horn

Where's the horn on the yaris. I mean, its a wonderfully cute horn and all, but people laugh at me instead of being scared whenever I use it. That is obviously not the effect I want. Truthfully, I want to get one of those mexican low rider horns. I would be stylin'.

edit: Oops, nevermind. I found a manual on it on my website. My bad. http://www.badaces.com/punch/2007_Ya...pair%20Manual/

if you're interested.

Either way, any precautions I should need to know before switching it?

I am also thining of switching my horn, I am going for something louder. I have been ran off the road 3 times in the last week, because people can not see or hear me while they are merging lanes and I am laying on my horn, Maybe everyone has there X-mas music to the max?

I think that Toyota Premium horn would probably be a big improvement.... or some Hella Tri-Tones, if you could find a place to fit them.

Yep... that's actually the website for the people that make those movies www.hornblasters.com

I agree it is childish and immature but you have to have a laugh sometime

This PA one looks awesome. You can record your own horn sounds too. Same price as the toyota premium horn.
