I bought the spreader that mounts to the rear tailgate from Hunterworks this past winter but obviously don't need it mounted every day.
Since the wiring harness and switch remains, I mounted a work light to the bottom of the cargo box just above the muffler and connected to the quick-disconnect plug that comes with the spreader. Now I have light out the back (and down low) which works very well when backing up, connecting a trailer as well as ground lighting when having "beverages" while hanging out in the area of the RTV (same as when everyone leans on the box of a pickup)... Like I really needed another light (as I already added 9) but low and to the rear close to the RTV was always dark.

Another thing I put on was a set of air horns. The OEM horn works "just OK" when the RTV is running but sounds like it's under water or something with the RTV off. I mounted the horns themselves to the bracket that goes across the underside of the hood. The air compressor is mounted on the vertical bar (under the hood) to the left of the brake stuff. I let my kids (3 and 7 years old) wander around in the woods after we stop for a bit but when they hear this new horn, it gets their attention and they know to get closer. They couldn't hear the old horn.

This will work and the kids can have a wider area to roam and still hear the horn. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I only have the twin horn. The triple you pictured would probably cause hearing issues for the driver since the hood is closed and a lot of the sound bounces back into the cabin area. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I know this will sound very silly, but how do those horns hook up? ( i haven't a clue but it would be good to have ) /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
