I'm not a big fan of the sedan (just a personal preference), but the dealer had a black "S" when I picked up my car. It looked plenty hot.

Good luck with your purchase. I'll honk if I see you.

I wanted to get an S, but my truck was starting to have some mild tranny problems and I was sick of putting $$ into to it... so I just shopped around at a couple of dealers and ended up with the non-s sedan - because at the time I got mine the s wasnt avail in my area, and I;m not even sure if it is now either.....

Prolly not. They weren't bringing them into our region. The one I saw was at a Philly dealer.

Well, I moved my airhorns to the front, just behind the grill. Much better sound, but I was unhappy with the direct drive compressor that came with it so I ordered their high output direct drive compressor which is double that of the stock model. WHOAAA!!!! Huge difference! It definitely gets attention now!

A funny sidenote! My wife and I went camping this past weekend. Red Thunder's first camping trip! We had to make a drive into town to get more firewood and a motorhome in front of us pulled off onto a turnout. As we went by, I gave him two short toots of the OLD air horns to say thank you. As we were driving away, we heard this HUGE air horn sound from the motorhome! We were both cracking up! It was big rig loud, like with a compressor and a tank! Similar to what's heard on www.hornblasters.com. I guess he showed us! LOL!

I'm not too great at searching the web, but couldn't findI'm assuming these horns aren't available locally (DC Metro area), or are they?

It's hard to show it but here's my horns.. there's not a lot of clearance (maybe a finger thick) between the bellow part of the horn and the grill.
Does anyone else use these Toyota horns? Does the kit come with wiring and connectors to splice the 2 horns?

I just got the horns that SmellyTofu posted I think (his pics look the same as mine). It's called a "Premium Horn" (Genuine Toyota Part Number 08522-42010). I ordered mine through JDMPit on E-bay (overseas) I'm in the USA by the way.

It DOES NOT come with wiring and connectors to splice the 2 horns. It only comes with the two horns (one 400Hz horn, and one 500Hz horn), and a set of instructions that are only in Japanese, and two other Asian languages that I don't have a clue what they are. So the instructions are worthless if you are not fluent in Asian languages. The pictures help a little, but without being able to read the actual instructions in English I find them worthless.

If anyone has these horns and installed them I would also love to hear how you did it. Would like to do it myself, but I know the front bumper has to come off and it's just too cold right now for me to be workin' on my car outside since I don't have a garage. I might just break down and take them to my local performance shop to get them installed.

I think the Toyota premium horns install exactly the same as the PIAA horns do.

Here is the reply from JDMPit when I asked about splicing or any included connectors (maybe a "Y" splitter) for the Toyota Premium Horn.

"I am not sure if they have the pre-wirer cable like the FJ CRuiser. Here is the link you may take a look to find if you can find sth similar to the FJ."

They gave me a link which shows a hidden 2nd horn connector on the FJ Cruiser.

http://yotatech.com/wiki/index.php/FJ_Cruiser_2nd_Horn

Apparently there "might" be a hidden connector built into the wiring already. Can anyone else confirm?

If anyone is still interested, there is a Genuine Toyota Parts horn splitter cable, that will allow you to run the Toyota Premium Horn pair on a car such as the Yaris with only a single horn cable. Now that I know this cable exists, I will go with the Toyota plug-and-play solution for upgrading my horn, and in turn, not compromise the factory wiring.

Here is a link of how they sound: (need flashplayer)

The one on the left is the premium double horn. The one on the right is the one that comes with the car.

By the way, does anyone know the part number to those Toyota horns?
