Dare To Be Different With Air Horn For Car
Car and truck horns have certainly evolved since they were first invented. Initially drivers used bells or whistles, and then the hand-squeezed horn. This was replaced by the first patented Klaxon Horn developed by Miller Reese Hutchison in 1908.
If your horn is no longer working, or you are looking for an original vintage horn to put in your restored vintage car, or maybe you have decided you want to change the horn you currently have to a trumpet air horn... check out the excellent range of car and truck horns available for you to select from on eBay.
Considerations when buying air horns for your car
Before purchasing an air horn for a car, the first thing you need to consider is the legalities. Different states have different rules. For example, in New South Wales, you can use air horns provided they don't sound like an emergency vehicle or similar. That would rule out musical horns, but an air horn that just blasts a note is legal.
You also need to consider how loud it is. It is against the law for horns to be used if they are louder than the legal level of between 85 dB(A) and 120 dB(A).
Finally, there are actually only three reasons you can legally use a horn in Australia. To alert other drivers that your car is approaching, to try to keep animals off the road, and as part of an anti-theft interlock system.
When shopping, remember premium horns will sound louder and produce higher quality sound than budget ones. When you decide to purchase an air horn for your car, make sure you know what you want it to sound like. You can choose the best horn for your car based on your preferences.
