Throw some air horns on it! Think of the expression on the guy's face that cuts you off when you blast him with a horn that sounds like a semi is sitting in his back seat!

Think there is room for these?

Yah, compared to the horn on my '94 Honda the Fit's sounds like a semi-truck.

You just really couldn't sound mad in that Civic...

i've used Hella Supertones on all of my Subarus. You can find them for around $50.00, and truckers will hear yo w/ no problems. I know guys that honk them just to scare the crap out of people. Horrible, I know. Here's a link... http://www.rallylights.com/hella/supertone_horn.asp

Forgot to mention... My wife now drives an 06 Civic sedan. The horn is absolutely hillarious. It sounds like a person is actually hanging their head out the window and making a faint honking sound, only they would probably be louder.

Yesterday I was behind a person that would not go when the light turned green. Anyways I honked my horn and they still did not move. Then the Lexus SUV behind me honked and the person realized it was green. I wish Honda would put a safer, louder horn in the Fit.

Here's a good thread on a 'real' horn install, Stebel Nautilus. One of the first things I did to my FIT. Talk on the forum of the Accord horn, but this is what you want ;-)
