just rewire it

two ways...
take a cable from your ignition switched live to your horn button
from the horn button to the +ve on the horn
from the -ve on the horn to earth

or
cable from switched live to +ve on horn
from -ve on horn to horn button
from horn button to earth

you dont need a relay for it, mine works fine without anyway
