this little bit in picture




got my steering wheel off at the moment waiting for a boss to arrive for my new steering wheel, anyhow have been using a spanner as a makeshift 'wheel' but when moving the car today i turned it too far and snapped the plastic bit that holds the spring mounted horn connectors in place.

anyone got one or know where i can get one (other than a scrapyard!)

I didn't bother using those bits and used a dash mounted horn button

It's only for the horn electrics, if you can't get one just put a push button in a convenient place on the dash.

Can't you just superglue or epoxy it back on? (Be frugal with the glue so as not to get any on the contacts - thus keeping them freely moving)
It's what I did to fix mine and it worked fine for the 18 months I had the car.

I would of glued it back on but it was dark and I was pushing the car back into my garage, not found the snapped bit yet!

The mountney wheel that was on had a centre push horn as does the momo one I'm changing to.

My stork arms don't include the wiper ones, one for sidelights/dim dipped, other for indicators and main beam....

I'd prefer not to have a dash mounted button for quick access so I'll try to make something suitable or find a replacement
