What would be a good LOUD simple plug and install horn for the 88 to replace the wimpy horn?

find an old car from the 50's and hook that horn up. its a 6 volt system so when you hook it up 12 volt it sounds like a whale being loved unwantedly. i was going to untill the horns accidentally got thrown out

Horns for the early 90's Cadillac's are very loud and plug and play. Get them from your local Pul-n-Sav

Thanks but I am looking for only one horn as that is all I have the wiring for and I do not have the time to wire up a second horn.

Most auto parts stores have a plethora of after-market horns. None are really plug-and-play, but a horn isn't that hard to mount and wire up. Get a truck air horn and really be noticed!

All Fiero's have 2 horns one in each front wheel well

88 was 1. No problem if you can't put 2 in. Just add a wire.
2 note of horn made more sound than 1 note. Take 2 horn together from 1 car. They treat as a match pare.

quote Horns can be used singly, but are often arranged in pairs to produce a chord consisting of two notes, sounded together; although this only increases the sound output by 3 decibels, the use of two differing frequencies with their beat frequencies and missing fundamental is more perceptible than the use of two horns of identical frequency, particularly in an environment with a high ambient noise level. Typical frequencies of a pair of horns of this design are 500 and 405-420 Hz (approximately B4 and G#4).
