Letsindy started a thread on here that I did some research for horns for him. Had three sets on ebay with links. All 3 had Viar compressors which is what I have.

I'll dig that up and see.  Thanks OBB

Wow, that rhymed. 


Another thing to consider is how to let out air from the air bags without dumping it all.
I'm not sure what the minimum for mine are, but it's around 25psi.

For the air bags I'm thinking of putting some sort of restrictor in the line.
Something like what they use on the oil feeds for some turbos so they don't blow the seals.
For the air bags you would need two solenoids. One for fill and one for drain.
It would be like filling a tire....press one switch and watch the gauge raise. If it goes too high, tap the second switch to bring the pressure where you want it.

That is why I need to buy the install kit for the bags.  I am assuming that they will have all the solenoids needed. 

Instead of running the bags directly to the compressor it would go to the tank.
