Can anyone post a pic of the horn/bracket arrangement for the 84 Carrera. I am putting my car back togother and have searched high and low but have not found the correct way to mount the horns. I have two stock brackets - one bracket seems pretty straightforward but the other is like a rubiks cube in orientation. Can anyone shoot a pic of their horn setup please - thanks!!

sorry i only have an SC with a different oill cooler which means different horn brackets. You might want to check the tech articles on the web and maybe pelican on how to upgrade the oil cooler . i think t talks about modifying horn brackets .. or it may have been an excellence article.

Yeah I have searched high an low for a pic - I need the arrangement for the OE setup, un-modified. I have two brackets - one is straight forward the other not so much in terms of orientation - tyring to see from a stock setup how they go. I have the 28 row brass cooler also.

Sorry did not see. Wayne's book, 101 Projects covers this. I think you have the shorter brackest if you don't have a fan. Basically, there is one "C" shaped bracket I think. The two horns are mounted at two different heights from the ground.

OK - first off thanks for the help - but still lost. (I know thick right?)

So there are two brackets total - one is straightforward this one in the pic - wtf? I have one on but cannot figure out the orientation of this one. The pic in this thread (from gwapo996tt) kinda looks like one of my brackets but not the other.

So this "C" shaped bracket - got a pic of that one? Most of these brackets are NLA btw so getting the right one or even the wrong one is craziness. Yeah I could fab one - but I think Ihave the ones that came off the car - cannot figure out how they go.

Anyway here is one of the brackets I have:

That bracket looks like the one that mounts the alarm horn at the bottom of the car.

It does indeed but it is not - and I know since that one is mounted with the horn for the alarm already on the car

I just ordered a new bracket - simple/done.

Is that not the upper horn (to the right in the pic) mounting tab?

nolift911

You would think but it does not fit...there is some weird arrangement for both of these brackets that is like a Rubik's - a pic showing both brackets mounted on the car from the back would be a hug help.

The bracket makes a "C" shape.
