    Do you need to know, or care?
    Yes, after some issues the other night with another vehicle turning into my lane that shouldn't, I'm thinking theses horns may be helpful. Show us the install, and the sound bites that go along with it.

    Removed the grille,
    Mounted the horn and compressor.
    Then I wired up the system, Using a 20 amp inline fuse link.
    I covered everything with wire loom including the stems of the horns.
    I kept the factory horn live as well.
    Reinstalled the grille.

    My only concerns are.
    The instructions included are very poor,
    I was hoping the tone off the horns would have been lower.

    I still am very happy with the increased volume of the new horns

    I agree with you... I got an air horn kit for my last Taco and was not real happy with the high pitch sound.... Have not installed them on the '16 yet... Might not..??

    None,
    I sent a Email to Kleinn to see if the 6127 kit has a deeper tone. I will keep you posted.

    use it here and get caught and enjoy a hefty ticket.

    Friend had one in his altima and got fucked using it at kennedy commons in scarborough when there used to be car meets.

    Especially if you're downtown, everyone's a bunch of cunts. I fuckin hate this city.

    None,
    I spoke with Technical support at Kleinn, they informed me that the 6127 would be a deeper tone, also he told me on any horn kit that the longer the horn the deeper the tone.
    I will be ordering the deeper tone kit.

    For what its worth, I installed a Big Bad Max horn on my truck, simple swap of horn and added ground. I swapped the 10amp fuse for a 20amp. It is slightly louder, but more of a truck / sheer sound. It gets the attention of people around me when driving if needed.

    I'm in Hamilton - and travel throughout the GT-HA.. I know the paranoia. I'd get one of those PA announcement things that have the intersection-clearing horn, i'd go for that... However, I'm as likely to get beaten to death in a traffic jam, if i was ever tempted to say what i was thinking on the PA mic, in this region of Congestion..

    Please don't be a cunt and blow your air horn on the highway, if you need to honk I hope you're keeping the stock ones.

    A couple years ago I was on a freeway and a douche in a Silverado honked at a car with his train horn which scared the shit out of everyone including myself and two cars lost control and skid all over the place because they got scared and jerked the steering wheel. Luckily it was light traffic so they didn't hit anyone or anything.

    Personally, i'm all for a louder and deeper horn, but an air horn? you're not a train.

    In my old LandCruiser I had it modded where the right horn button was the factory horn and the left horn button was wired to a horn from an Iveco semi truck. In the city i used factory horn and when I went out in the country side I used the semi horn as necessary.

    not to mention illegal to use on the roads here.

    but holy shit just noticed the plates on OP, downtown toyota. HOLY SHIT DUDE, how does your ass feel? Those fuckers were asking 4K over MSRP for an OR. I laughed and left the dealer. Stoufville gave me the best price out of everyone in the GTA (yes i went to that many) Downtown toyota is pretty well known for charging over MSRP too hope you got a deal man. @Toronto Tacoma
