Default HORN install today

im taking the s to an audio shop today, maybe tomorrow if they cant fit me in. anyways im just wondering where i should put the low and high pitched horn. i was thinking having the high tone in the bumper and the low tone in the engine bay so the high pitch will have less resistance to deal with. i have the Fiamm hiway blaster horns. let me know how this sounds. also whats a fair price for a horn install $50?

I've had mine on the car for about 5 years. Love them! When I honk 'em, people look in their rear view for the grill of a 60'2 Buick.
I mounted both of them from a modified bracket where the OEM horn went:

I used the existing horn wire, split it into 2 and upped the horn fuse from 10A to 15A. It's fuse #47 by the battery.

I guess 50 bucks is fair if you can't do it yourself.

Stand at the side of your engine bay by the battery. Open the fuse box lid (just in front of the battery). Closest to you, you will see a row of three small fuses. The middle one is unused, so it is empty. Now, look directly away from the empty one. That middle one in the next row is #47 and is labelled "STOP" on the lid.
PS. It should be a 10A fuse. I actually bumped it up to a 20A.
