Connecting to the battery junction box, '93 horn upgrade - Ken C? 200 1993

I'm upgrading the weiner horn in my '93 to the old two-horn style. I've got a Bosch relay, using the horn pad circuit to power the coil and flip the relay to supply full battery voltage to the horns with 10ga stranded wire.

The only part of the puzzle I have left is the best way to connect the hot line to the battery. I'd like to connect it at the junction box beside the battery, under the 30amp fuse, but have NO idea how. I don't see a way to open up the box, and have no idea how the wires are attached inside. Any ideas? I'd like it to look professional and clean rather than have ugly splices all over the place so a wire running out the junction box would be ideal.

Ken C, I know you've done this a few times, what can you tell me? Anyone else know how the '93 junction box is set up? Guess I'll go outside again and carefully toy with it until someone posts.

Thanks guys!
