Supply the Black wire at the steering column with a negitive trigger. If your alarm has a + siren trigger then you will need a relay to switch polarity.

Unless the negative output of which you speak is designed for horn honk, DON'T use it. If it is for a siren, the out put will be constant not pulsed like you need. A constant horn honk will burn out the horn in short time, not to mention be very annoying. Sirens have their pulse feature built into them. You would have to use a relay and flasher circuit to pulse the horn.
