Bill, if you look carefully in both the 1929 and 1930 shop manual you will find ( in the back of the book)the part numbers for the special mounts, and are identified as ‘right’ and ‘left’. They mount the the horns from the front edge of the horn motor, not the rear as most owners do. When mounted from the front they assume a natural balance, and always point straight ahead. A separate hole is provided for the horns wiring and is very neat. Special wiring blocks are also identified to be used with the added horns.

The fact that you have never seen such a factory mounting is that there were few that did so. I have two photos of such mountings.
