Horn Location

Just ordered a Hella supertone (single) at 118db. Can anyone confirm the location of the horn ? Appears to be that disk on the passenger side just above the oil (?) cooler.

Horn Install Update

Just an update. Installed a Hella Supertone (85115) horn kit purchased from Susquehanna MotorSports These are a pair, one at 500 Hz and one at 375 Hz. Replaced the OEM horn in front of the radiator. Left the other OEM one that's buried in the engine compartment near driver side foglight. Put the second Hella in the triangular open space next to the SBC thing, facing up at the hood. Tapped into the postive lead for the radiator horn using a tap in connector. Tied the ground into the ground screw next to the SBC.

Three horns, 118 db, loud as hell, necessary (?) for Atlanta traffic.
