So your H3 is thought of, one a luxury vehicle or two an off road vehicle. Most of us choose the agresive look with big mean looking tires that looks like they will eat anything on the road.
When your Hummer looks tough people tend to look at it and feel intimidated when you roll up on there tail so fast on the highway, but when woy sound your horn why does it sound so WHIMPY! Almost like a meep! meep!

Q: Has any one replace their horn to something that dosent sound like a beetle bug?
I was thinking about putting a semi horn in my grille.

I put a set of Wolo 400s in mine, wired in with the stock horn. Sounds like multiple cars are honking which gets more attention!

Not sure if you guys have ever heard of this guy before, but he has some serious train horns available. I got all my strobes and stuff from him (good friend of mine from my avalanche days). Take a peek at his stuff and see if price compares to what you guys can find out there ; http://www.oviedosafetylights.com/

Funny - I took my 08 Alpha in today to check out a CEL and the base 08 H3 loaner they gave me has a much stronger horn.
