The horn was a little intermittent so whilst replacing the
wiring I fitted an air-horn i had swapped for an old alarm siren in Aktobe, Kazakhstan.
I used to wiki post on here, thanks Covkid.
Now when any crazy driver here toots me, I blast them back!

It was you post a couple of years back that got me thinking.
I happened to have a relay in my spares box and used a horn that was available at the time.
I was told it's around 130 to 150dB!
