It is located inside the nearside front lower splash guard. You will need to remove the plastic trims to access the horns, from memory they are bolted through to the underside of the air filter box, they are prone to corrosion but sometimes a good earth and terminals clean up does the job.
It's not uncommon for the horn push to fail.
The horns are just regular high/low tone can be easily sourced through your local motor factors quite cheaply.
