You could pull the wheel arch spat off and go from there, or move whatever is in the way of getting at it from under the bonnet. Awkward both ways though !

Through the arch would be the easiest way. They're just the hollow fittings with the pin through the middle, push the pin out and pull the fitting out. Be prepared to lose some of the pins though, I've found matches work well to hold the fasteners in until new ones arrive. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html

Hello johnbain
Pictures... 
Through the front lights easiest (but maybe not in your case) on the + side an inadvertent security measure... 
Through the inner wheel arch 'spat' is the next option, fiddly but doable...try to not break the spat / loose the clips Why do you want to get to the horns... My OS horn failed...wiring OK... so swapped both over to a set off
a 1977 Jaguar XJ12... on the odd occasion use is required...everything sounds a lot better (as it should have been)...  SKIP

Hi johnbain
Wiring is within cavity above inner wheel arch 'spats' and outer bodywork. can be accessed / identified in a number of ways, remove spats, top wing air vents, even accessed through the side repeater indicators...best to trace back to bulk head main loom for any 'alteration'. Two wires running to each horn, Black & Purple + Black (on mine)  Click image to enlarge Old Horns / Plugs Removed SKIP https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic83242.html |
