Need some advice on where to mount a train horn in my X5

[illuminum]

Yes, a train horn. I'm trying to find a suitable place for it, but it's a pretty large piece of equipment.

the horn itself is:
Overall Length: 17.5"
Overall Width: 15"
Overall Height: 11"

The holding tank for the air is a half gallon tank.

So X5world, where can it go?

PS - It's going on a 3.0i

How about mount it hanging down from the ceiling just behind the pano roof? That way it can protrude 17.5" forward with a clear shot to the front.

Right next to the cow catcher? WOOOOOO WOOOOOO

I'm loving the responses so far.

Here's a website that sells the train horn kits. http://www.hornblasters.com/video.php

There are less expensive kits sold on ebay which use replica horns instead of actual train horns, which is what I'm going to install.

I was thinking of removing the winshield wiper fluid tank and replacing it with a smaller one, and mounting the horn there somehow. That's one option I've come up with so far.

I think this thread has the potential of that post on the Imprezza board - the one with a large woman in Daisy Duke shorts riding on the back of a sport bike - remember that one???
