Default 93 Civic Horn Please Help

I have a 93 when i bought it, it didn't have a horn installed. So I just bought a horn from auto zone. The steering wheel was replaced it has the horn button and one solid black wire connected to it. Other than that is all i can see. The air conditioning was removed so there are quite a few loose wires and harnesses where the horn should be located so I don't know which ones are for the horn. I don't really feel like spending that long on this so if some one could tell me what color the wires going to the horn should be that would be great. Actually if someone could walk me through what i need to connect it i would really appreciate because I have a feeling that the wire going to the horn button may not be connected correctly just because it seems weird that it's just a solid black wire by itself

The horn should be under the front bumper way over on the right (from the driver's perspective) side of the car. You almost have to take the bumper off to reach it. There's a 2-wire plug for it. All the air conditioner related stuff mounts on the left side of the car. If the air conditioner has been completely removed there will just be a 6 pin plug on the right fender for it that now goes nowhere.

If the car had air bags you should have a "clock spring" going to the steering wheel, not a single wire.

There are two connectors in the passenger headlight are that are not connected one has a blue and a black wire, the other has a white/green and a blue/red wire, which one of those connectors would it be. To connect the horn button do i need two wires. Is there any good schematics for the horn wiring anywhere, everywhere i checked had just about everything but the horn diagram. I am not sure what a clock spring is is that some sort of connector I know the air bags have been taken out at least driver side. Thanks for your help.
