So i bought a new low tone horn because the previous horn sounded like a miniature train. I thought it would be a direct swap until i found that it had theseAttached Image

they were powered by an air pump in the spare tire area that was wired to a relay right next to it.. WTF? i looked at the wiring diagram to see what wires actually go to the stock horn and i couldn't find those wires in my car.. i also find the wiring for the fog lights that i don't have (idk if those are supposed to be there or not)..

could someone please post a picture of the stock horn with the wiring and relay. i need a reference.
