Yeah the horn is great. No this is pretty much the only place I can mount it. Its way to big to fit in any of the bumpers. The thing is 18" long not to mention how tall it is. I don't really care that much if it gets nasty under there, its meant to resist the weather. It's really cool though, I only got a 3L Jericho compressor from siegeengineering and it works great with this horn. Eventually I am going to upgrade to a 3 or 5 gal tank with a 200 psi compressor (vs. the 120 I have now). Thing sounds really cool, if you want a good sounding train horn without buying a real train horn, this is one you should get. Savatage I'll post some videos and soundclips soon. One of the reasons I wanted this other than for the novelty is that in Memphis there are such bad drivers and I have almost been hit a couple of times due to the fact that people cant here my whimpy civic horn. I'm just careful going over bumps, and we don't have very bad weather here though so I don't have to worry about that. It's funny how people react (tested it at my school today) because they don't expect a small car like a civic to have a horn that big.

Here's the link to the video.

Anyways, the horn is a lot louder in person than it seems on the video. You really have to here it in person to here the fullness and sound of it and how loud it really is.

Oh and Savatage I would highly recommend this horn. If you have the dough you may want to just go for there system that comes with both the anvil horn and the 200 psi 3 gal. system vs. 120psi 3L system that I have. the 200 psi one also has a 1/2" hose vs. 3/8" that mine has. Either way mine is still very loud and always turns heads. You won't be sorry you bought it.

That's probably the gayest thing I have ever seen on a civic, and I have like a 10 foot spoiler on the back of my car too.
