Saw these at the Harbor Freight the other day, would be interested to see if they're worth it compared to junkyard horns off a Lincoln or Crown Vic.
I got a set of Caddy/Buick/Olds four-tone horns in the NYG box a couple of years ago. They'll eventually go in my Miata. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/are-you-tired-of-your-wimpy-stock-horn-put-in-4-cadillac-horns.508390/
My Pontiac came with one horn but had brackets for two - GM cheaped out and the horn was nowhere near loud enough. Nothing wrong with the single that was there - it was a Fiamm and I just worked out which one I already had (think it was the high tone) and added the other - doubled the volume and much harder to ignore.
Might want to check Amazon - they also sell air horns etc.
My Jensen Interceptor came stock with regular horns and air horns and a switch to select between them. You might consider going to selectable twin sets.
BTW - the Hellas posted above are also well reputed.
I have been using fiamm air horns for years. While not authoritative, they are loud and different enough to warrent attention from people.
I'm leaning towards the Hella ones with my Z. I'd rather rebuild these but I'm sure many threaded parts will break upon disassembly.
I have a Bad Boy horn I never got around to putting in the Abarth. Debating trying it in the BRZ or something different. The 944 has a pretty wimpy horn as well.
Used these in a couple of Miatas. They saved me once, as a woman in a Honda was more intent on her text message than she was on her driving.
