One wire is for power the other is for earth

Have you still got the original wheel to have a look at?

When the horn button is depressed it needs to form a circuit with the backing plate, creating the 'beep' as such.

Quite often the button at the back has a metal loop coming out of it that touches the inside of the steering wheel to earth it. Sometimes that metal doesn't protrude enough to touch the wheel. Check that out!

Yeah it says something about running a feed from the horn to the centre of the steering wheel where you screw it on to the bosskit.

Center of the steering wheel is your earth. Cool
