Default Where`d you guys mount your horn(s)?

I bought this set up from Harbor Freight. (It`s gotten good reviews over at the Factory Five forum)

https://www.harborfreight.com/2-piec...set-99911.html

Since it`s actually 2 horns (one high pitch, one low pitch) I`m scratching my head figuring out where to mount `em.
I don`t want to mount them on the crossmember in front of the radiator.
I thought of mounting them on the side of the radiator support bracket itself BUT.... when you turn your wheels full lock, they come too close to hitting the horns.

The only other place I can think of is high up under the nose.
There`s a little "cubby hole" where the upper radiator support mounts to.
I was thinking of making some 90* brackets and mounting them there.
They`ll be high enough up in the nose that nobody will see them, and I`m close to the grounding locations I used on the frame for my headlights.

Thoughts?
Suggestions?

Superformance mounts them in the driver's side wheel well up by the headlight.
I haven't even thought about where I'll mount a horn in the new build.

0012's are mounted in the engine compartment just behind the radiator, they will be replace (sounds like an old VW), going to go with some euro air horns (ok Ferrari Fiam's)

I tend to put the on all our cars, just don't want some weak "excuse me" horns.

Mark.
