If you have the large air tank up front, a simple "T" should supply what
you need. If you have a late model with the air comp in the hall, you
may need to install another air comp.

I have them on our GMC, I wired the solenoid into the normal horn relay
with the GMC electric horn, so that when I sound the horn, I SOUND THE
HORN.

I did,nt want the horns mounted on top, I mounted them under the front
bumper
sideways. the air line runs direct from a tee on the tank itself, to
the solenoid
which is screwed directly into the airhorn..

On our 73, the relay is mounted under the windshield on the left (
drivers )
side, lift the acess door and just to the right of the steering
column.
 
Hidden sounds better to me. Mine has horns on top - just one more place to
leak rain water and increase wind resistance, in my opinion.
