Has anyone had any luck replacing the plastic insert on a mid fifties F-Series horn button? Horn replacement button replacements are available but include a new reproduction cap. I have good caps, but all the spares I have also broken plastic inserts that connect the horn button to the steering wheel column. New horn replacements are in the $50 range and include both pieces.

 

I hope the plastic is available,my dad dug up a hard to find power steering button while installing a gas line service.

 

I think the best thing is to buy used at a flea market or ebay...

 

I switched out the one in my Mercury horn button. There was 3 or 4 tabs on the cap that are bent around the plastic. I just carefully straightened them out removed the plastic center, replaced the center, and bent the tabs back.

 

I been watching and have came across several, but the plastic tabs are always broke off.
