Will this work?
It shows the steering wheel nut (359553-S) in the wrong place. It goes inside the cup (13A809)

I just Googled "53 ford f100 horn button assembly", but came up empty. So I changed to "54" then "55". Then looked at the images.

Here are a couple more good ones:

That picture is fantastic I now see how the horn button is kept in the bore, on the spring retainer and the contact spring is centered by the big button.
MANY THANKS to you and all the guys who took time to post.
Thanks again
JOE
