Default louder horn, thinking air horn

On a road trip last weekend we had several close calls with drivers not looking when changing lanes. Failing to adjust their direction with a horn and lights.

Any recommendations on how to patch in an air horn?

I was hoping I might wire it inline with the regular horn. That way a quick honk would get the regular horn and a longer honk would give the air horn time to wind up and really make some noise.

they're called Hella Super Tones. Loud enough to cause an old lady to have a heart attack.

Is there a model I can just replace one of my horns with? Or will I have to re-work the electrical?

I actually like the S2000 horn. It's more "manly" than my dad's explorer. So that's nice
