Train horns in cars ????

My main worry would be the weight - those things must be heavy, surely? A vehicle airhorn is one thing but those are a lot smaller than a loco horn. While I'm sorely tempted to add a vehicle-type airhorn I wouldn't fit a train one. Rule over here is that such things are 100% legal (within the usual regs - if you sound it at 3am in a built up area you can expect trouble, but using it to wake up the idiot trying to ram you is ok) but they have to be wired via an extra switch and can't be used in place of the standard horn (which must still be in place and in full working order) <br /> <br />Regarding the stereos, I always laugh when I see a "streetracer" with a stereo that doubles the weight of their car. Clearly they've not made the connection between their half-ton of extra weight and the fact that they can be outrun by a stock TDI Land Rover...
