well I just mounted my airhorns the other day. I mounted the push button on the door ( easy access) and the plastic nut on the back keeps coming off because where I mounted it, it has a slight radius preventing all of the threads to lock down the button any ideas where I cat get a longer push button? I have tried autozone , kragen,napa and radioshack. Ever gonre to radioshack and left happy ? Tia Karl [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

try a little locktite blue or some silicone.

do not use locktite! When it cures, it swells, and this will break the plastic nut in two or four or more unusable pieces. Silicon will work well for this

Some people are like slinkies, Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs!

Yes RS aint what it used to be!
What about tieing the air horns into the stock horn pad as mentioned but adding a toggle switch (or deisgn of your choice) to by pass the air horns if desired. I have mine direct to the horn pad no by pass, when I honk I want to be heard!
