Default Volvo 440 horn location

I have a 440 that recently failed mot because horn isn't working (didn't realise). Problem is, I can't for the life of me find the horn, and because it's not working i'm getting no clues either. I've checked the wiring etc elsewhere and all seems o.k. so have come to the conclusion it's the horn its self.
Maybe that's the problem, the horn isn't there to be found in the first place, I only need to know whether it has 2 or 3 connectors so i can pick a new one up.

Can anyone help?

Hi

You should find two wires runing down the middle of the car between the radiator and the engine. I can't recal lwhere the come from but the terminate on two rubber booted connectors in the middle of the car directly under the bonnet catch.

If you get under the car, it's going to be behind the number plate bay about three inches.

Let me know if you need a photo.
