Blowing My Own Horn - NOT! 200 1980

I drove the wife's 1980 244 the other day for the first time in a while. I noticed that the left side horn button doesn't work at all. The button actually rattles around in its hole. The right side isn't that great as it is fussy and only works if you press it just right.

So I thought it is time to learn about horns. I find that my Bently manual is pretty slight on the subject and my Haynes manual seems completely silent. This car is pre-airbag and I suspect that getting at the switch below the buttons is fairly straight forward. But before I go at it with a pry bar of some sort, I thought I best ask those who really know.

Perhaps Art has a treatise on this subject as he seems to have for so many other things. But I couldn't find it. Before I go at this are there some parts I should order?

Thanks as always!
