Train Horn As An Alarm?!


Recommended Posts

I've seen people really damage their horns by mounting them on the bottom. You can scrape them, even at stock height. And idk if you get snow in your area, but if you do, it will clog the horn and impede it from blowing. Plus, the horns are the most expensive part.. i would hate to mess them up!

The best place i would say to mount it would be in the grill facing down, or somewhere under the hood. You may have to go under the car to mount it, but it would work out better.

I have a viper 5704 with remote start and all that bs. There's some cats out here as anywhere that scout your car figure out what alarm you have and straight get in your car break the steering column and drive off. Even worse is the dudes that take tow trucks and hook up and get all your shit. I want a train horn and I'm buying a GPS chip for her also. Call me paranoid but I don't want to lose my investment.

I agree. Better safe than sorry. I have a back-up alarm for my alarm LOL. It goes off only if the door is opened.

But an alarm can only alert you, it's up to you to bust a cap in someones ass when they fuck with your shit. LOL

The cap busting is already taken care of. My car parks next to my bedroom window at night so hopefully the horn will wake me up haha. Also I keep mags loaded so it will only take me seconds to get someone. Shit just really pisses me off that someone would actually want to rob me or anyone.

Iv heard this one in person and trust me it will do the trick.

I need to be able to hear it 3 blocks away and in the office. Our parking lot is kind of far. I also want to park it and hear it in the mall unless that's to much. At least has to make someone piss their pants when trying to do something stupid.

Look as an alarm and for the space you have it's not going to get much better. No your not going to hear it in the mall, but you may hear it in the office but trust me iv almost shit my self even when I knew my friend had the horns. It will work just fine for you.

So you think I should get the 300 dollar one or the 600 dollar one? Are they the same db? Can that tank handle a 30 second burst?

Yeah man. Viper anti shit. Viper will prevent a 15 year old but a grown ass mechanic that wants a 5 thousand dollar system they'll get it. Viper is the best alarm wise on the market, there reliable.

Very good point man! Ill defiantly put them in the grip. Harder to get to also.

I have viper, mainly because when i got it, it was top of the market. You're really paying for the name though. If you do not have the money for that, companies such as clifford and python are just as good because they are all owned by a company called Directed. so they use the same parts.

They sell these GPS chips that send a signal out to a sat every 15mins to give you the position of the chip. And you hide it into your dash were they can't find it. I saw one on amazon but they don't sell it anymore. I also saw one on kipkays vid. There pretty dope.

and what this alarm really does ? i know i could read online but it be better to hear the opinion from the owner..

sometimes Loud is NOT pretty

Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.
