Horn button is removed by pressing it in with your palm and rotating it about 20 degrees ccw. How much is your steering wheel off? if only a little, then it is probably more easily centered by adjusting the tie rod ends. Any alignment shop can do that for you.

If you do take the wheel off to center it, you will find on its backside two little pins that stick out, oh 3/8 inch or so. They contact little flippers on the turn signal mechanism to cancel same. You will have to make sure all pieces are present and accounted for. If there is a large gap between the column shroud and wheel the pins can miss the flippers. You will have to loosen the steering column at the steering gear and at the bracket at the base of the dash and slide it up for a clearance of about 1/16 inch.
