Default Horn Relay

Have a 2003 Burb Z71/4WD/TowPk, does anyone know where the Horn Relay is located on my ride ?

Thanks, I'll try to find it

What my plan is to install a separate Horn Button on the steering column.
OEM replacement for a Horn Kit cost about $950.00 (so I'm told) at the Dealer, given that package unavoidably includes a new Air Bag.

Anyone done this, have any tips ?

I also have an 03 Z71 (love it), if you pop the top off, and look at the diagram on the underneath, it will have everything mapped out, and labled. It is one close to the fender towards the middle. I can't take an image right now, as wife has it at work.

The way I've done this (years ago) was run a ground wire through the addon switch, and connect it to the ground side of the coil on the relay.
Is this the way you've done it ?
