Horn question?
Hello, just wondering if someone could tell me whether the horn near the fan is the low or high?

Thanks,
Sanjay

Disconnect one of the horns and listen. My guess is high based on location vs. the one tucked in by the expansion tank.

Would it make sense to move both out front and replace with Hella Red? Just curious.

I've tried that ... can only fit one unfortunately. I have thought about fabricating a bracket for the second horn with the condition of not having to drill any hole in the car ... any ideas welcome.

Hey Franasia. I though nearly everyone here was from west coast. Nice to see NEder. Where are you located? With one horn already in center front I though about second just underneath again with fabricated bracket. My dad always relocated his from behind the fenders to in front center through the grill for best effect. Nice to see another wagon owner too. Let me know if any ideas spring forth. I was from Maine originally and miss it so.
