Default Horn replacement?

Ideas on what to get? Been thinking about a ferrari air horn setup. Looks like the OEMsetup will be $70.

Any aftermarket options good?

I have replaced the anemic, meep-meep sounding little 'biscuts' in several of my cars that had them. But I rarely use my vettes horns and I feel the sound is hearty and sufficiently loud. So I don't feel compelled to replace the vette's horns.

Read somewhere on here to take apart the connections, tightened them up a little and sprayed them down with PB Blaster.

Works GREAT!
