The horn relay will indeed be hangin' 'round the fuse box. Some are literally just hanging there.

Yep!!!! Went out and crawled under the dash and there it was hanging there right by the fuse box. It scares me when I get one of these questions because I can't shake out of my head  untill I go and dig around on my own car to find the answer. But I'm glad I can help and wouldn't want to steer anyone wrong. Sorry it took awhile

Finally had time went and looked and there it was. Feel a little silly, these cars can humble a guy very quickly.Thanks to all you guys I  have a horn that finally works. This site is fantastic.
