Big 12V wire to the horn + terminal *and* to the relay 86
terminal.  This supplies +12V to the horn and to the relay control coil.

Horn - terminal to relay 30 terminal with heavy wire.  This was
formerly connected to the horn button wire.

Horn button wire to relay 85 terminal, so it now grounds the relay
control coil instead of the horn itself.

Relay 87 terminal to ground with heavy wire, to make the power ground
formerly supplied by the horn button.
