Trying to find out if '61 Impala Horns are 1 year only or will other years interchange.

Good 'ol Hollander doesn't go into enough details again.

Note that the horns in the parts book were univesal horns. The bracket was not attached and they came with two different brackets and a large stamped attaching nut so they could be reconfigured to mount on many different years and models including Corvairs.

Appreciate the info, y'all.

Specifically I'm trying to find out if '61 and '62 Horns (Factory Originals) are exactly the same or are they different from each other (including brackets).
