Default I need help wiring my Sportsman 400 with a horn!

Can anyone give me a diagram (rough and handwritten is fine) or a link that shows how to install a horn on their Sportsman? We have a 2013 Polaris Sportsman 400, which I doubt makes much difference. I already have the horn and "kill switch" button for it, I just need to know how to access the wiring harness under the headlight pod and which wires to splice and connect. Im not even sure how to get the pod cover off to get to the wires! LOL Thanks so much!

Better if you find a hot wire +(possibly red/white) that is powered only when the ignition switch is on rather than from a constant hot wire or the battery itself. Just use a simple test light on unused wires under the front panel to find which is powered up with the key on then wire it to the hot side of the button. Then follow the rest of the diagram.
