They are the horns that I got from kevin, it was just the compressor, tank, and horns, I had to wire it all up myself. It wasnt bad at all, just time consuming.

[Smitty]

Nice...Planning on some one of these days. I want them more for when I am towing my 5th wheel. To many idiots that do not understand I have 10,000 lbs behind me.

[OklaHemi]

AWE Yeah. A must have for every Ram. nice work Daniel

[AWE Daniel]

Update: The compressor I got with this was looking and feeling pretty worn out, and it was loud as hell. When it would come on it would be so loud that I would have to turn up the radio to ignore it.

So yesterday around 4pm I ordered a new viar compressor from hornblasters. Hornblasters shipped it out the same day (from tampa)and it arrived today, 24hrs after I ordered it it is installed and is super quiet and it fills the tank much faster. Great service from hornblasters! I thought I would share for you guys if you are thinking if ordering a kit, check these guys out first.

[SmokedRam]

Sweeet!

[4XLGator]

What model compressor did you get, Daniel?

[AWE Daniel]

Viar 98c I believe

[ramn it]

SWEEEEEET !! love to disturb the peace!! They are great for the text n drivers out there. I got some lady in a mustang convertible on the phone she threw it in the back seat and she she thought she threw it out . I got both fingers

[AWE Daniel]

Lmao awesome

[4XLGator]

98C? Hmmm, ViAir change their part numbers? Mine is a 350C and Kevin's is a 325C.

[AWE Daniel]

nice job Daniel, I also have one and it looks just like yours and I also put it in the same place you did, I don't have a tank for mine it is just direct drive, did you leave the stock horns hooked up or did you undo them? Nice job looks great

Direct Drive? How does that work?

I unhooked the plug to the factory horn after I tapped into that circuit for the trigger, so I use the steering wheel to "honk" like normal. I can also use the factory panic function to set them off remotely.

[AWE Daniel]

Direct Drive? How does that work?

I think that is when the compressor is hooked directly to the horn.

[SmokedRam]

Exactly...there is no tank...just a 12v compressor, hosed directly to the trumpets...easier to hook up and saves alot more space...

^ I dont see how that works without a sufficient air supply.

It works they just arent as loud

[SmokedRam]

Yeah, that one I posted there is what 130db? compared to a Klein compact pressurized system its like 153db.

[AWE Alex]

One of these days I'll make a video of my Whelen airhorn lol

All of the "ads" selling train horns advertise very high db ratings. The ones I have are advertised at around 150db but I did have them metered at our big show back in February. The meter was right at the trumpets and metered at 138db.

I'm familiar with the Whelen brand because of work, some of those things scream and sound cool.

[AWE Alex]

Yeah, mine is a 295 model, and it still has all the tones enabled. I never use them, but it is fun to prank neighborhood kids lol

[Rebel_Lady91]

Looks Great Man!! Love Train/ air horns!

[Onk]

You still liking the horns D?

[Rebel_Lady91]

lol i know i do

[AWE Daniel]

Yup they still work great, i have a leak somewhere i need to fix, if i let it sit for more than a day the tank empties itself. I tried to find the leak a few weeks back and couldnt seem to find it with the soap and water trick, but ill take another crack at it soon. The new compressor pumps it up so fast it hasnt bothered me too much.

[4XLGator]

I still have a leak too, even after Kevin and I found and fixed one leak.

Try Windex instead of soap and water. It only takes a little squirt and it keeps bubbling and bubbling and doesn't run off like soapy water.

[AWE Daniel]

Nice tip thanks ill try that!

[4XLGator]

No problem, bud.

[blackshadow]

There just like the ones i have on my truck. Very nice

[Storm Rider]

Gotta love the horns.

[AWE Daniel]

I should put some on the 300 now lol

[BAD HABIT]

You could!
