    When i got the car the compressor was disconnected and a generic electric horn had been installed - not sure why. I have dissasembled the compressor and serviced it and it is working well now. I have taken the grill off and found the hose leading from the compressor and it terminates i am guessing somewhere near where the horns would have been - it looks as thought someone had cut the hoses after the y connector and removed the horns.

    I have what I believe to be the correct horns and mounting bracket but for the life of me I cannot see how they mount without disturbing the fans.

    Any help, guidance or photos of this up close would be terrific. Thanks

    I can't get a good pic, but maybe this helps. Looking at the front of the car, facing it:

    There are vertical frame brackets on the left & right of the fans. The horns are mounted to the left of the left-side bracket, just to the right of where the left foglight is (or would be, if you don't have one.) So, it's on the left side of the car between the fog light and the bracket. No where near the fans.

    The compressor is mounted behind the horns, between the horns and where the heater hose comes out of the blower.

    The Euro, is on the side (R side) of the radiator, pic shows and on my US QV is on the center front. Can someone confirm if all Euro are on the side like the one on the pic?

    My Euro matches Mike's excellent pic.

    I can vouch for the same for a 84GTS US car.

    Is there any chance you could shoot a pic up towards the mounting itself? Thanks
