I'll explain my car's condition.

No horns. I pulled on the air bag and heard click.. push in, click, pull out click.
My air bag bracket was bad and both horns were bad. The previous owner had just changed the battery before he sold me the car. The bracket was bad, causing the horn relay to stay closed and it would drain the battery if the car sat too long. And since both horns were also bad, he never knew about it.

Repaired bracket: $0, used some tube and goop; High and low horn, $36 from Pelican.

You have to pull off the front bumper to change the horn... search Youtube for "Boxster bumper" and you'll find a good video showing how to DIY.
