FedEx lost my horns for 3 days but I finally got them today. Im not sure where to mount the horns or the tank. I want to put the tank under my bed near the rear bumper but I need to be able to access it easily to fill it up with air. I dont think I have room for the horns under the hood, so I might have to put them on the roof. Can I get a valve for the tank so that I can fill it at any gas station? I didnt see a valve like that at any auto parts store.
My truck is a 02 frontier crew cab with a roof rack and light bar. I think I could conceal some of the horns between the lights if I put them on my roof.

Mount the air tank in your toolbox,and mount the horns under your bed. I would recommend getting a compressor later on so you don't have to manually fill your tank,trust me it will get old,and the benefit of having the tank on the box is so when you do get a compressor it will be out of the elements. This is how I have my train horns mounted and it works great
 
whats up with the cookies in the pic?

I forgot they were there. I must have put them in the bag with the hose and forgotten about it when I was putting the stuff on the floor. They are necissary for the installation, though.

DieselWhale, if I put the horns under the bed they wont be as loud as if they are in the front, right? People cut right in front of me almost every day where a busy road goes from 2 lanes to 1, and I want it to be as loud as possible for the person that does that. Under the bed would be a great place to put them though.
