Previous Owner Guido Perez????

So, I have been going over my newly aquired 80 FI Spider trying to find all those PO add ons and improvements. I noticed a toggle switch under the dash that didn't seem to do anything? Traced wires through the firewall, into the engine bay and then trough the drivers fender well to disappear above the inner fender. Pulled the inner fender and to my amazement I discovered the rarest of the rare, a Spanish market only factory option? Yes that's right, it plays La Cucaracha!!!!

I figure I'll give you all first shot at these before I call Christy's Auction house!!

BTW, once I wired the relay correctly they worked fine. Loud as hell. The factory horns are in place and work fine via the steering column so go figure?
