My question is the horns on a 36 tudor deluxe tuned high/low? My car is wired for two but only has one. so as I hunt for another one, should I be looking for anything specific? Jefferey
Thank you Jefferey

According to the Chassis Part Catalog, the horns are the same except for the bracket. You can change the tone of the horn slightly by changing the armature spacing. .050" gives a deeper tone than .035".

Once again the pitfall of using a parts catalogue dated well past the year of production of the subject vehicle. The horns are not the same as they have distinctly different tones. Their diaphragms and their attachments are different one side to the other to create that difference in tone. (Their mounting brackets are also different, obviously.)

3W2, Thanks for correcting my assumption. I used the November 1935 Chassis Parts Catalog and it provides little information on the horns.
