Default PIAA Sports Horn

Just got a set to upgrade the standard ones, but just have a quick question on where the best place would be to fit an Earth connection, see pic below for a choice:-
Thought maybe here under the bolt?

or in this hole arrowed?

Just for info, the new horns have a 2 slade connection, where as the standard ones only have one, so a 1/4" female slade connector is needed, as explained in the instructions.

Always meant to upgrade the horn, but never got round to it.

Hardly use it anyway, and i doubt it would be heard over the exhaust.

Bit of a thread revival ..... just fitting a set of these to my car, how did you get on fitting the second horn behgind the headlight? Its a bit tight for space and the horns are pressed up against the bumper, the one behind the headlight is at a bit of an angle when I try to do it ...... ?

Think mine both sat at an angle really, and low down.
Can't 100% remember how the headlight one went, must have been easy, maybe just a fiddle, grille come off to give a bit more room for you to hold the horn and do the nut up.
