Hella Supertones?
Anyone in the SF/Daly City area have these installed? I put them on and I expected to be blown away but I didn't get what I wanted.
Could anyone let me hear theirs and compare them with mine?
LMK! Thanks.

... I'll be happy to let you listen to mine. I've had doods JUMP out of the way when I layed on the horn. Ask the DCMP crew how loud my supertones are.
Check your install, or check your hearing

I've got them. This is my second set as I let the first set go with the WRX when I sold it...
as was mentioned above, have you stood in front of the car and had a friend honk them? It makes a huge difference. Keep in mind that these are "freeway" horns. Very directional and having a distinctive tone...
I'm in S.F. if you want to compare horns... and I didn't use the relay.
