The Admiral

My husband loves to work on cars. His motto is "Why fix it, when you can upgrade it?" A good illustration of this comes by way of a modification that he made to my old SUV (although in this case, the part that he modified wasn't broken). For our 1 month wedding anniversary, Rob decided that he was going to install boat horns in my car (I know, very romantic). 

Picture two of these babies mounted under the hood! 

And what's even cooler is that he mounted a carbon fiber toggle switch that activated the horns right where the red arrow is pointing in the picture below. 

We affectionately called our new horn The Admiral. It was awesome, and it was loud (much louder than an air horn). I'm pretty sure that I never used The Admiral in an actual driving situation (I'm just not that kind of driver), but it made me happy just knowing that it was there! Unfortunately, The Admiral is no longer with us. I can only imagine what the people at the dealership thought when we traded it in...
