1915 Horn / Horn Tube - Length Question

[Retro54]

In Mr. Andersons 2021 catalog, he had these two types of 1915 horn tubing assemblies listed. Would anyone be able to shed some light on what the difference is between the two?

- Horn tubing with correct bracket  for 1915 for bulb horns mounted under hood 30” long order elbow  separately  127.00

- Horn tubing with correct bracket 1915 short style 24” long  mounts on dummy door panel. Order elbow separately. 119.00

Thank you in advance. I totally understand Mr. Anderson has passed, was hoping the collective knowledge of the forum may help shed some light.

Thank you sir! I had run across one or two of these threads but not all of them. Gonna read and see what I find.

Whelp, I've recently been able to pick up some additional materials for my horn, hence the reason for the original post. But I am not sure if I have what I need now to make it work (Namely the tube, I think it may be too short).

I did get a nice original elbow as part of the deal, which was exciting for me. I also got a 1913-14 (I believe it is anyways), horn tube. The tube measures about 20.5", and I think it has the 13-14 bracket with the round stand-off. As you can see from my photos, I believe this will be too short for my application. Am I right?

Asking again, for the sake of getting some clarity as the previous post links all kind of talk around the length, without directly providing the inches.
Does anyone know what the difference is between the two 1915 styles of tubing? the shorter one lends you to believe that it is what is needed to go to the mounting on the block in the driver 'door' panel. However, where would the 30" one be used then? If my earlier tube is an earlier tube and is too short, I am not terribly worried. I am sure I can re-sell and/or trade for a 15 if I put the feelers out there.

Thank you in advance for your time and attention and for the excellent resource this forum is. When it comes to the bulb horns, there just doesn't appear to be a lot out there published on the various forums. Once I collect information, I might just try to consolidate everything I have learned in a post for the benefit of the hobby.

Bump to the top. Does anyone know of a good resource that spells the proper lengths and years? Just need a nudge in the right direction.
