The horn on the left in the first pic looks to be a battery horn for 17-27 T’s. It missing the bracket for whatever year it was used on. I think the bracket up to 25 is the same while the 26-27 bracket is different. I’m not familiar with the other horn.
The Ford horn can be checked to see if it will still wannnnkkk by holding the horn bell in your hand and use the palm of your hand to give the back of the horn a good lick. It should go wannnnkk for just a bit.

The one on the left looks like a standard T battery horn. I don't know what the one on the right fits.

I was thinking my 25 horn had a terminal for a loom wire rather than a lead wire built in.

I know Willys Overland cars used the Schwarze brand horns... the one on the right.
