Where to buy horns?

[thirt4]

Does anyone here on Ford Barn know of a truly dependable, retailer that would be stocking 12 volt horns for my 1934 Ford? I want the original style.
I have tried all the usual suspects but have only been told everything from, we have not carried them for over a year (even though they are still listed on that retailers website), we are backordered on them until December 2013 - OH Heavens! Really?, to we never carried them.

I have my original 6 volt horns but do not want to fiddle with gadgets to make them work on 12 volts. Also, I dropped one of them while moving them around and flattened the top on it beyond any fix.

Appreciate any help.

Thank you.

You see them on ebay quite often. Around $230.00

No need to fiddle with gadgets to get them to run on 12 volts. The 6 volt horns will quite happily run on 12 volts

I wouldn't hold the horn button in very long tho.

Ran 12V through my original Stewart-Warner horn for 30 years--sounds like:

OOGA rather than aaaaoooooogaaaaa

You can buy a resistor with a heat sink for around $20 from the usual suppliers to reduce the voltage to 6v.
