    Late '68MY - Which pair of horns?

    My car was a June '68 build and I would like to try and understand which pair of horns it should have (although built as a Sports Purpose T at the factory I don't think that will have had any impact on the horns fitted).

    When I took the horns off the car there was a Bosch 'snail' 400Hz and a Hella 'flat round' horn (can't see a Hz figure on the Hella), see photos below; although they both looked to be of a similar age I assumed (very dangerous and something I am really trying to avoid these days!) that the other 'snail' had been replaced at some stage by the 'round flat' Hella.

    However, having now studied the '65-'68 Parts Catalogue in detail I see that the '911T' and the '911 USA' (Coupe & Targa) were fitted with:

    901.635.112.02 "Bosch 400 Hz" - so looks like my 'snail' is original

    and

    902.635.102.00 "Bosch 335 Hz" - from the diagram in the Parts Catalogue this is a 'round flat' of similar appearance to the Hella found on my car.

    I suppose my question is - was the Hella fitted as an alternative when the car was built or, as I originally assumed, has the original fitment been replaced? If it has been replaced can anyone provide photos of an original Bosch 335 Hz (902.635.102.00)?
