How hard would it be to wire in a second horn inside the car, like under a seat or the dash or something....
Going to be installing a decent system here very very soon and I want to make this thing as unpassable as humanly possible, minus the guard dog...
Have some ideas already, but this is one I have heard rumors of being done, but want to know how really fesable it is....

^Screamers are barely offensive.
In the Avenger we did I installed both a car horn and a regular alarm siren inside the car - try sticking your head a foot from one of those [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] Had them down at the bottom of the dash too - a special treat for the guy looking for the alarm wires [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I accidentally set the alarm off while inside the car and almost pissed myself it was so loud. [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

There are a couple ways to go about this...
All the sirens I have seen have the amplifier for the siren built in.. take it apart and remove the amp... now mount it somewhere safe and hook up 2 similar trumpet speakers in parrallel that have 2x the nominal impedance.. (or 2 with 1/2 nom. impedance in series ect.. )
another way to do it would be with 2 seperate amp/sirens on the same output from your brain... there may be some implications to doing this...
You could also take the output from the siren and run that into a seperate amplifier and run all the sirens you want off of that...

well....all I know is I want it set up in such a way, that if they get in the car,either they wont be able to handle the noise or they wont be able to diable it by the time I get there....and god have mercy on em if I catch em!!!
