Default Anyone know where factory horn located?

I found an air horn that I liked and all it says I have to do is find the factory horn and move the two wires from factory horn to the replacement air horn. I was wondering if anyone has put in an air horn and if it was similar in installation. If anyone knows where the horn location is. Thank you in advance

The horns are just behind the front grille. The best picture I could find is attached, and it is easily accessed from above by opening the hood and removing the front plastic cover. C1RH02A is the horn connector, and the harness side connector part number is XR850178 (may help you to find the mating side so you can plug in?). Pin 1 (black) is ground, pin 2 (grey with brown stripe) is connected to battery voltage via a 15A fuse and relay in the engine junction box.

Well, I found mind here, under the right hand side plastic cover (3 plastic twirlies to remove) in front of the wind shield, with the connector loose from the body. Which hole does the connector fixing pin locate in? is it the one in between the 2 threaded holes near the top right of the photo?

There should be two horns. Maybe there's one on the other side of the engine compartment .
