MG Midget and Sprite Technical - MG midget 1975 Horn wire

Can someone tell me how to wire new horns to my mg midget. my horns have two wires, one is solid purple and the other is purple and black. the purple wire seems to be always hot. Please explain
ss Stys

the purple wire is supposed to be live (hot) the other wire takes the current up through the steering column to the horn push on the steering wheel and reaches earth (ground) via the plastic "pencil" and a rotating disc beneath the wheel boss. It connects with the ground down the steering column.

Sorry but I cant find a picture at present, it is very easy to follow the circuit
