Default where are my horns?

ok this one may sound dumb but where are the horns located in my 82 corvette? i am trying to straighten out all the little annoyances with my car with pretty good success. the last couple things are the cruise control and where the heck did the factory put the horns? this is my first corvette.

Don't feel bad. I had to ask too. They are tucked up deep in the front corners.

Under the nose on the top front of each fender skirt. They were moved there due to the cross-fire air intake for the hood door.

AIM shows them.

Yeah, man, don't be too embarrassed, one of my first questions on this forum was "Where the hell is the jack?".

try this, have someone push the button in the middle of the steering wheel while you stand in front of the vette and follow the sound to the source. only thing is the horns have to work to use this method.
good luck....
