    Neil,

    Either will give you all the access you need . Both is overkill !

    It just boils down to which you feel is easier to do , and or are more comfortable doing .

        Neil,

        I never replaced the horns while the car was together , only reinstalling them during restoration . That's how I remember having plenty of room from above or through the grill slot ,and hence my reply .

        However after further thought on the matter , I think I would get a broom handle and just disconnect the hood support. Then open the hood a lot higher then it normally goes when attached , and go at it that way . Disconnect and reconnect the horns from the front, thru the grille.
        Removing and replacing them from above . Just being ever so careful when sliding the horns past the hood !

        Better minds than mine , most of them here on this forum , will probably chime in tomorrow with a even easier trick neither of us ever thought of !

        Jim
