I get a very slight "toot" from one of the horns when hitting a very particular type of bump. I think its the horn in the upper range. It nowhere near happens every time, maybe once a day, but I don't really have any idea where to look. Switch in the wheel? Electrical ain't really my bag, so all advice is greatly appreciated.

So I've determined the wheel is the trouble spot, guess the switch contacts when the steering column shakes on a firm bump. This wheel is diff from the 87 as it has 2 independent horn buttons, one on each side , the 87 has 1 big center pad. I'm gonna hit it with some contact cleaner once I figure how to crack it open.
