This may have been covered before, but if so, I didn't see it. I got to looking at the air intake grille today, and all I could see were the two big horns in front of the condensor/radiator. I unbolted them, and drilled another hole in the center support (down at the bend) and rebolted the horns there. I didn't need to extend any wires, and was able to secure the wiring with an electrical tie wrap. The horns are still as loud as ever, and they don't contact anything but the center support bar. Best of all, there is nothing blocking the air path to the cooling system. I do have a screen installed behind the grille in honor of the Love Bugs that we get this month, and in the fall.
