Question to those of you that installed your train horns outside of the engine bay, for example in the rear of the vehicle by the exhaust.
Are you guys not afraid of someone going under the vehicle at night and ripping off your horns?
I just got a set of Nathans, and I’m worried about installing them there and have someone steal them when my car is parked.
You may say, well how would they know you have horns?
I go to car shows with my car, and many people know my car, and know the area where I work/live. Once they hear I have train horns, what is to stop them from stealing them?
Anyone have any great ideas to counter this? Reason I ask, is because my show car is also my daily driver, so unfortunately, I have to park it at work, sometimes in a spot that I cannot keep an eye on it, all the time.
Well that’s just it, my car stands out, and from going to all the car shows, they would probably hear it and then remember my car. I’ve had so many people that I don’t know come up to me and say, I see your car all the time at such and such an area. With social media, it’s not very hard to find out who the person is, facebook, cardomain, etc.
I don’t keep my air ride in the car during the winter months, I put on my stock springs, so the car is never lowered during the winter.
Security bolts are a good idea if your worried, or I guess you could weld the nut to the bolt, or mount them so that the bolts are inaccessible when just working in a parking lot without lifts and jacks.
I have mine in the bed of my pickup under my tool box for a similar reason. Its a pain to get to the bolts you have to unbolt my locked tool box from the inside of the box in order to have room to get the horn bolts off then have some one under the truck to hold the lock nuts on the other side of the bolt. I installed intentionally making it a pain to uninstall lol
