Horn sounds weak

Today we had some street flooding in New Orleans and I drove through water that was a bit deeper than I had ever seen to drive through before. Unfortunately it happened so fast...it was either continue to where I could get off or sit in the middle of it.

Engine seems just fine, but my horn sounds like shit. It works but it sounds really WEAK. Where is it on the car? Could it be damaged or is it holding water and could I get it out somehow?

I just bought my Fit and haven't gotten it wet or anything but I still think the horns sound weak. Hella is under consideration but does Honda still wire up the horns goofy like they did on the 4th gen Civics?

Screw all those meaty horns, you either need the "ah-wooooooo-ga!" ones or the super truck ones!

goldwing horn

Just got my Fit 23 hours ago, and I must say the horn is a joke, on my Goldwing, it has the loudest horn you have ever heard (for obvious reasons) If you hit it by mistake, it will scare the crap of you.
