The Ford Barn

I'm wondering if someone can help me and post up a clear close up picture of the inside of a horn from 1935. I went to change the wiring on the horns on my car to new cloth covered wiring but when I opened them up they were a bit of a mess inside and at some point in the past someone has added plastic covered wiring and then soldered the wiring to the connections inside the horns but there is also other wiring inside the horns soldered together. I have no idea what ite meant to be like inside the horns or how the wiring is meant to be connected.

I have also changed my car to 12 -earth. How will my horns cope with this? Can I get them changed to 12v or would a voltage dropped work with them? No idea where I wild put a voltage dropper though given the location of the wiring and the size of the horns.

I've looked in my 35/36 book from the early ford club but it doesn't cover what I'm looking for.
