Just put together a little how-to for you. :) Horn found at any store should do just fine. You can find the how-to here. http://www.teamfocus.us/horn.htm

They have horns with higher decibal levels and high or low tones.

I had to replace my horn last year after it ingested quite a bit of water on a storm chase. I looked all around for something that wasnt so, well, childish sounding, but I could find nothing other than basically the same thing the OEM was like. You can find them at Autozone or Pep Boys and are really easy to change out.

HOW to find the horn~~If it still works, open your hood, stick your head in there, and have somebody hit the horn button. Make sure you have a video camera aimed at you when you do this cause , well, its a funny thing to watch. Actually, I believe that the horn is located next to the radiatior on th drives side, on the bottom. Hope this helps.:caution

you can take the horn off and test it easily. There should be two wires goin in, one is hot one is cold. the horn button on your steering wheel completes the circuit. Hook it up direct and see if it works, if so its your wiring or switch. Ebay has some great motorcycle horns that are as loud as the law allows for about 60 bucks. I forget the decibles, i think somewhere around 165. That will make your ears bleed if you are close. good stuff. good luck

This is helpfull...my horn works fine but I ordered a louder horn made by Hella from BAT, Inc.  It is a dual electric horn that puts out 115dB.  I'll let you know how much louder it is...
