Yeah I talked to some guys and they said 4.56 is the way to go. 4.10's wouldn't be enough with the 33's

Where did you end up relocating the horns to? I'll hopefully be getting/making my bumper soon and couldn't really find a good spot for them.

Here's a few pics of where they are. I removed the fender supports and used the speed clips around the horn bracket where the fender support was mounted.
