So, I got sick of the embarrassing sound from the OEM horn and decided it was time to upgrade to something with a little more balls.
I went shopping and found this PIAA dual tone sports horn at 4x4parts.com. Let the record show the only reason I was shopping there was because I won a gift certificate to that site this summer.
You can find the horn here.

So, install is a piece of cake. Trust me.
First, remove the stock grill by removing the 6 black clips on top and the 4 clips inside, just below the radiator.
Now you will see the stock POS horn attached by a single bolt to the center and two separate wires connected by two metal contacts. Remove the two wires and horn.
Now, using the bracket provided with the PIAA horn kit attach the two PIAA horns to both ends of the bracket and reattached it to the truck with the stock bolt off the OEM horn.
You'll need to two blue wire taps to splice the original wire into two for both horns. To get a clean area to put the wire tap peel back the electrical tape from the OEM wire and expose the bare wire.
Cut off the ends of the two wires provided with the PIAA horns kit. These two with be spliced into the original wires.
You'll end up with these left over parts.
The taps should look like this.
Now, just attach the other ends to the 2nd horn.
Now, test it to make sure it works.
Put the grill back on and congrats, you are all done.

And, it should sound like this.
