I did that with the TR4.  Worked until the wire broke.

Now I have properly fixed the grounds on the steering shaft and the horn works fine.  Problem is there is some sort of intermittant short in the column causing the horn to beep when I don't want it to.  Sue and I were getting dirty looks as we crept through the crowds at Back To The 50s.  Sue instructed me to disconnect the horn, so now I'm back where I started, with no horn.
