Default 35 Horn Wire Hole

There's a 5/8" diameter horn wire hole in each 35 front fender. Would it have
come from the factory with a protective rubber grommet in these holes that
the harness went through?

No, the horns are affixed to the fender with like a coach bolt which has a hole through the center of it, which the wires run through

Yup....Brian's got it correct.
The horn bracket which the horn body attaches to is the bolt that attaches the headlight mount to the fender.
You should only have a single horn on your 1935 pickup.

There is a tar covered cloth loom that the wiring passes through going to the bolt with a hole and from the bolt to the inside the horn cover.
