Default New Jeeper - 95 Horn Issue/Fog Light

I got my first vehicle (for a 16 year old), its a 95 Orvis, 177,000 paid 1,250 for it. The front bumper is loose on the right side from probably bottoming out, its broken somewhat, the Fog lights are broken out and the bulbs broke inside and its close to impossible to try and screw the broken bottom of the bulbs out.. I tried to remove the grill but had issues doing so. Also, the horn does not work. It clicks inside by the glove box but does not go off, is there a fix for that? Also, the guy before was a speaker head, and had wires going everwhere, for the speakers that go in the doors, whats a good way to hide the wires that go into the door (speaker)... thanks

Basically.. how to fix the horn, hide the speaker wire so it dosent show when opening the door, and replace the fog lights.. oh and the back "trunk" door only opens from the inside, the handle dosen't pull up enough but if you push down with a screwdriver from the inside it opens fine (removed the paneling)

There is a good chance the horns are burnt out. They're in front of the passenger's front tire behind the fender liner. The clicking you hear is the relay. That's good. That means you've got power that far. The horns blow with the alarm, so they tend to burn out. Be careful replacing them because the airbag sensor is there also.

See if you can snake the speaker wires thru the plastic loom for the window and lock wires.

You'll have to replace the hatch handle.

The foglight bulb may be an H2 which is held in with a clip.

You'll have to jack it up and take off the front passenger's tire. Then take out the plastic fender liner (front part) and there they are. They are bolted to the bottom of the headlight support area of the body. There are 2 on a bracket. That third little piece in the wiring is the airbag sensor. BE SURE to disconnect the battery 2 minutes before messing around with it for obvious reasons.

You'll have to find a different place to mount the air horn because space underneath is limited. I ordered replacement horns from rockauto.com and they bolted right in.
