Question
Brad, Hello and hope all is well.
The horn contact under the horn button has come apart on me and there are 4 pieces that go together in a specific order, one is an insolator, and one piece actually holds the horn button, it is secured with 3 nylon pop rivets which I can get. Would you or someone in your circle of experts have one of these ? Or know someone who is familiar with how this goes back together? Great service.
Thanks in advance.
Tony.

Answer
Good Morning:
I assume that this is the three spoke simulated wood steering wheel that you have. As such it has just a horn button in the center of the wheel. Well I have been through my library and cannot find a picture of it clear enough to show the assembly and my Buddy Gordon says that he would need to see it. However, that said latch on to a copy of Hemmings Motor News ( www.hemmings.com ) the bible of classified ads for the old car hobby. There are pages of companies that sell parts for Camaro and one of them is sure to have information. Sorry that I could not be of more help on this one.
