Are you saying this Porsche wheel has no horn button? strange.

It's not going to be difficult as the horn just earths out (completes the circuit) and as T25 dashboards are metal then any momentary switch is just completing the circuit to ground.

Sweet just about to undertake something similar myself that wiki really helped. Only question is, on the relay on terminal 86 the cable goes to the switch and then on to a power source. Is that source just the battery as well?

Fella, ask a question once, not twice in different threads.
