As Tom said, Radio Shack should be able to provide you what you need.  I take 
probe testers for 12 volt DC and cut the ground line.  In the line I take a kit 
box and solder together a 3 to 28 volt buzzer.  One I bought actually beeped as 
power was applied.  It would work great.  If you know where to tap for the 
reverse current, you could epoxy the beeper to the bottom of the truck.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] back up sounds


  I have a 2 year old who really wants to add back up noises to his remote
  controlled dump truck.

  I was thinking, as an electronics engineer, that I could tap into the power
  from the batteries and add some kind of circuit to make a little beep beep
  while in reverse. Then I thought there is probably already such a device on
  the market for real cars.although it probably runs off of 12 volts for a
  real car. This has 4 C cells in it. 

  Anybody have any ideas for us as to how to make it go beep when it is in
  reverse?

  Thanks,

  David
