Default aftermarket horns?

Hey guys, anything out there for the T/A's as far as an aftermarket horn? Let me know, got them out to do other stuff, and though *shurgs* wonder if there is anything else out there?

I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to wire a horn from a Ferrari or Porsche up to a firebird, right?

I put 85 Dodge truck horns on my last car. I just lobbed off the fbody connectors, wired them up wire to wire with some wire nuts to see if they would work and presto...get attention without being insane.
