Default Horn Replacement on '96 A4

Hey guys, first post here... I have a 1996 A4 that has horns that need to be replaced. I want to use the Hella Super Twin horns to replace the OE ones. I took a quick look under the hood and could not see the horns. No, I did not have someone beep them for me, but will do that. Can someone give me the location of the horns and is their replacement something I can do without ripping out a bunch of other stuff? Thanks.

Pop off the bottom passenger side grille on the bumper and look in and slightly up - you'll see the two horns there. Getting them out will probably suck unless you pull the bumper off (or at least out somewhat). See the DIY timing belt procedure for instructions on how to do this.

Thank you. Shoot, I had a feeling that I would have to remove the bumper. Oh well, c'est la vie...

Took a look last night and I might be able to replace those without having to remove the bumper. It'll be tight, but I think it is worth a try. It also looks like the OE horns are quite a bit smaller than the Hella Super Twins. Does anyone have any experience installing these and whether they will fit? Thanks.
