I am putting the coolant system back on the car after the leaking episode and have found a question about the horns. I had taken the driver side horn off to more easily get at some of the fittings. As I was putting it back on I noticed that the trumpet of the horn was aimed squarely at the radiator. I have gone through my picture library and have perused several manuals but I have found no pictures of how tha horns should be mounted orientation wise. Do I have them wrong? Should they be facing the open area of the front?

Your thoughts and comments greatly appreciated!

The trumpets should face forward. Sounds like you've got your horns flipped side to side.
 
Forward... like the brass section in the band. Perhaps you have them switched left-to-right.
