1972 Horn(s)
I'm a little confused. How many horns on a 72? I have two on the car. One is an original Delco 9000032 stamped A which is correct for the car. The date code indicates Nov 9 1971. There is a second horn that is clearly aftermarket. The AIM for 1972 is only showing 1 horn, the 9000032, but all of the vendors sell them in Hi/Lo sets.
I have a service manual with a wiring diagram that only shows one horn (low note). so it appears that only the one horn is correct. Can anyone confirm? Thanks

My 72 has only one. Everything I've ever seen (haven't seen everything!
) says 72s have only one. And when I ordered a new forward lamp and horn wiring harness, it had only one horn connector.

all the tech manuals and ncrs judging guide i have, all say 1 horn for a '71 and '72 up the front.
security alarm horn trumpet rear wheel well.
after being cut off and almost run into many times, i have added another "very loud" modern style horn up n under the front cover, not noticeable from the engine bay.
played around a at a friends workshop with his junk cars and found a nice n loud deep tone unit,
with the original still connected as well, it's annoyingly loud now....
