Ok, so,

I do lots of driving for work and a lot of is downtown.

I've seen every bad driving mistake possible here in Ottawa, it's amazing and scary at the same time. Honestly I'm a little surprised I haven't had an accident yet, defensive driving FTW. The drivers here are nothing like the ones from Toronto, it goes from being cut off by people going 20 under to people slowing down to go through green lights, to people holding up traffic for no apparent reason in the left lane. Hell, to merge on the 417 people do 75-80 in the right lane so you can't even get up to speed! To some people it's like other drivers don't exist (and it doesn't help that Ottawa's road network looks like it was designed by a 5 year old in Art class).

So anyway, half the time my stock air horn doesn't work (I'm assuming water/ice has gotten in it) so I'm looking to do something different. I've tried flashing my high beams but that doesn't do dick all either.

Quite bluntly... I want something louder that attracts attention and let's others know that there is in fact a car around them and that they're not alone on the road. Kind of like a little reminder to be a bit more courteous and considerate on the road.

I'm willing to go as far as the even installing a small air compressor in the car to power the horn but IDK where to mount it as the trunk is where the subs go (might be able to put it where a stock sub would go? mount it a bit higher so it doesn't get bumped by the sub box?)

Before someone suggest train air horn or truck air horn, the problem I have with either is 1. I'm not a train and 2. I'm not a truck. If I toot either horn I want the driver to know it came from me, not think it's from a truck.


Suggestions? Please don't say "go to canadian tire parts section", I'm looking for a real solution not a 30$ cheapo gizmo (unless they're actually good and work well, then I'm game)

Thanks
