Question about Parts and Horn 850

The back Liscense plate lights are out, i checked the manual for wattage and went online to order, but I cant find them I checked Auto Parts Wholesale online. Am I looking too hard, can these be bought at an autozone or are they specific.
And, anyone ever replaced the contacts behind the steering wheel for the horn, thats my guess for why its not working?

Pull the plug off one of the horns and use a test probe/ multitester to see if you get 12V when the button is pressed.
Of course check the fuse. Could also be the horn relay. I'd try anything first to avoid messing with the airbag - very dangerous. Disconnect the battery for over 10 minutes before messing around in that area.

Good luck.

Bulbs are available at any partsstore.

Just take them in and show them the bulb.
