OK  My horn was bad on my 1972, so looking to replace it I see that they sell them in pairs a hi note and low note, however, when I checked the car I don't see a place to mount a second horn, nor do I see a lead from the engine harness for a second horn (it's a new harness)  Did these cars come with one or 2 horns?

I don't know when they stopped having two horns but my '73 only came with one. I added a second as one note sounds lame.

U05(dual horns) option started in '74. The same wiring was used whether it had dual horns or not, so the non-U05 cars had the extra connector, but not the actual horn. Afaik, the earlier cars did not have dual horns.
