    Piezo electrics are expensive, and i don't think they are worth using for car horns.

    the traditional mechanism is that of solenoids, coupled with a thermostat like device.

    the thermostat like device keeps making and breaking the circuit, while the solenoid attracts a soft iron bar, which vibrates and produces the sound.
