I have all the wiring we'll need.
Just make sure your horns are mounted where you want them mounted, and preferably to metal

But yeah, I can help you out.
Modding the brackets? I mounted mine to two existing holes with stock bolts using the flat brackets that came with the horns. No modding was required at all.

Of course when I moved them to the lower opening, that was a whole nother story.

Yeah, but no 2 exisitng hols seem to allow me to line up the horns centered both vertically and horizontally. At least ont he bugeys and Dave's 05, the horn bolt (in the stock location) is offset by about half an inch from the lower hood release latch, and those are the only two holes with 12mm captive bolts. You wouldn't know it from my car, but I'm a perfectionist when it comes to symmetry.

If there's a better way to mount them, I'd love to see it; I actually ended up fabbing a bracket for Matt's horns, which is the cleanest install I've done.

Here are my perfectly symmetrical horns using the stock holes and the flat brackets (obviously on different angles). Maybe something changed on the 05's. On my 02 wagon I did drill a second hole, but still didn't have to modify the brackets:

Of course I may be off .002 degrees.

Hey Egan,

Was one of your horns mounted by the drivers side headlight?
