horn dead

quick question...88 XLT with the dual horns. Took them off and had them tested...bad. Each horn has a single wire connection and I am guessing that where it attaches to the frame is the ground. Do I need to get the replacement dual set-up at the local Autozone/Advance or do I need to get one high and one low? The only problem with that is there are two wire attachments on each of those. Unless I hook up the pos. end on each horn and run the neg. on each to the bolt that attaches the horns to the frame. I just don't want to make several trips to the salvage yard for a questionable horn for just about the same price. Any help? thanks

Yes, the mounting bolt is the ground for the stock horns, and you should just ground one terminal on each of the aftermarket ones, if that's what you get. They should have direct-replacement horns with 1 wire each, though.
