Mike, one horn is the high tone and one is a low tone.  No idea how to tell
the difference, and now that you mention it I think only one of mine works.
I do know it is suppose to be impossible to find original metal units new
and that you will have to by aftermarket plastic ones.  Sorry no idea on how
to tell the difference.

YMMV

OK, I've got two horns (which seems to be standard), and only the first is
working.  No problem here...if I can't replace a horn, I probably shouldn't
own the car.  My question is, since I've never heard the system working
properly, is there a tonal difference in the two?  Do I need to properly
identify which horn I am replacing in order to rectify this?  Curiosity as
much as anything else....and deciding where to place this on my to-do
list....somewhere behind "leaks at every conceivable point!

72 Spitfire...great shape if you discount the fact that it leaks more than
my four month old daughter!
