ACC>------>switch>------>HORN mounted inide the cab

):D

If you want to make it harder on the thief, use a unconventional switch.

Some ideas

- Phono jack, take the plug with you on your keychain.
- Reed relay, take/move the magnet (not good for high current)
- Gut the ciggy lighter and use it as the switch
(of course if the thief swipes your ligher your sunk)
- Hide a switch by your fog/locker/etc switches
(to be real classic, label it "Siren" ala BatMan)

etc.

Use a relay and you could drive one
of those "big-rig" style horns.
