How to install a Dixie Horn?

01-XJ · Sep 14, 2006

Can anyone give me some good ideas on where I could put all those horns?
I've been thinking about getting one for a while, but I could never figure out if it fits anywhere under the hood. If there is anyone out there that has one installed, could you post some pics, or atleast share som knowledge.

Keep in mind that I already have an ARB air compressor and an airaide intake.

Thanks guys,

I saw one where the guy made a bracket for the horns on the underside of the hood andit seemd tucked up nicely

Sounds like a good idea
I hope it works cause I just ordered the horn

mount em where the airbox was from the factory like i did, or take out the grille and make a bracket behind the grille and put the grille back in with bright red horns showing, lol

Yeah, but my airaid airbox is in the same locatian...

Here is a nice mount up that I have seen

I think i'm gonna put them up under the hood like tha earlier post stated.
anyone have any good ideas about wiring? I think i'm just gonna hook up the wires from the normal horn

any more input?

so every time you want the horn to blow you want to hear Dixie? hook up a momentary switch and keep the factory horn too.

I don't ever use my horn normally, so it wouldn't be bad. I used to use my horn to say hi when passing peoples houses, but then i got my flowmaster

Thanks for the help guys.
I mounted the horns up under my hood.
I'll take some pics and post them.

By the way, I decided getting a separate button was much easier, so I did that.

Mullets are only required with IROC Camaros

are you gonna take pics and post them because i have a dixie horn but i couldn't figure out how to mount it even after reading this thread. I can't figure out how to run all the hoses and wiring for the pump.

Are there any delays in the sound d/t the long hoses?

Not that I can tell, but then again I've never heard it with short hoses
