'68 442 Horn part number?

Hi,
I'm looking for the part number verification for a 1968 Olds 442 horn pair.
I purchased Delco Remy 9000 283 (L) 0G3 & 284 (H) OG2 the manual states this should be fine to use for 1963 - 1972 models.

I can't seem to figure out how to install this pair. The bracket doesn't line up with the holes. Can you ID the correct horn part number for a 1968 442?

Or if you have a picture of a '68 442 using the Delco Remy 9000 283 (L) 0G3 & 284 (H) OG2 horns I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
Guy

'68 horn high note (passenger side) is 9000262 and low note (driver side) is 9000261 (see manual section 11, page 123 of the assembly manual). The problem might be that the actual horn is the same for each side all those years, but the bracket to hold it onto the core support that's welded to the horn might be different between model years '68 and '70.

Thanks Larry,
Would it be possible to post a picture of how the horns are mounted?

I believe Randy is correct on the bracket config.

I have 68 horns and 70 horns and they are very different

Exactly like the assembly manual shows them.

I’m sure that’s no coincidence...lol
