when you're at the test and they tell you to use the horn, just use your middle finger and yell out the window

well if the relay isnt in there just look under the dash for a spot that doesnt have a relay in it .. it is 2 pronged right.. and it wont be on the fuse panel it will probably be hanging up by the steering column so your gonna have to get in a good spot where you can see up above your fuse panel..

no it wouldnt go on the fuse panel under the dash it might go on the one in the engine bay.. look for a spot that dosent have a relay in it .. usualy the fuse box is dirty where there are no relays in it.. see if you can see a outline of a square around where the relay plugs in if there is a square that means there was a relay there at one time and it might be your horn but i read about them being under the dash by your steering column .. but could be in other places.. check the fuse box in the engine bay first
