Default Mounting locations for Dual Horns??

Trying to solve my wimpy horn problem I think I've come up with a solution.

I understand that the pre-1973 cars came with Dual Horns. On my car, there is only one horn mounted in the front near the headlamps.

What is the correct loaction for mounting the 2nd horn. I'm fooling around with mounting tricks but would like to keep them in somewhat "correct" locations. Anyone with a 68-72 care to tell me where the 2nd horn goes?

Thanks!!

On my car, there is only one horn mounted in the front near the headlamps.
On my 69 they're both mounted near the headlights, one on each side of the centerline. In other words, if you open the hood, stand in front of the car and look in the gap between the hood and the nose, you can see both of them, just inboard of the headlights.
If I'm still not making sense, let me know and I'll scan the AIM page for you.

Thanks much! Can you tell how each of them are powered? Is there a separate power line coming off the harness for both?

Thanks again :)

Looks like mine is just split to the two horns from one power line. Not sure if mine's original though.

Mine are original. The second one was mounted by the dealer (as the paper work indicates) to a standard connector coming out of the front harness near the left headlight. I remember looking at the AIM page and they are both mounted where the picture shows.....
