Default Model A Horn Wiring

I have a 1930 5 window coupe street rod converted to Chevy 350 power. Obviously the radiator shell is not original but an aftermarket piece to accommodate the larger radiator. The shell is drilled for the headlight wire looms but not for the horn wiring loom. I plan to install an AHOOGA horn in the factory position under the left headlight and use a chrome wire loom to the radiator shell. Does anyone have a schematic showing where I need to drill a hole for the loom or could provide measurements? Much appreciated.

Default Re: Model A Horn Wiring

On a stock '30 A shell the horn conduit hole is 6 3/4" center to center below the headlight conduit hole and 1/2" from the rear edge of the shell where the hood rests. The hole diameter is 3/4" with room for the grommet.
It looks like you have a '32 shell & dropped headlight bar so the "A" measurement might not apply. I wood mount the horn and conduit first, then locate the hole where the curve & length of conduit results in a pleasing curve to match the head light conduit. Good luck.
