Thank you so much for those links! I ordered the items. Do you know if there is a special wire type I should use?

I am working on a 1956 vw beetle oval window, I am installing new horn assembly. After installing brush and hooking up wiring horn automatically starts going off. Removed horn button and inspected wire that runs down the shaft of the steering column. I found two wires running through. One brown that runs all the way down to through to steering coupler. I am not sure where the other one runs too. Is there supposed to be two wires or just one. Thanks
