Horn contact for 1970 Olds Cutlass Supreme

Having trouble locating a new horn contact kit for my 1970 Olds Cutlass Supreme. Part of mine is missing so the horn does not work unless I pull the horn pad off and stick a screw driver in the contact hole. Where can I find the new kit for it?

How does it attach to the back of the horn button???

It's part of the turn signal switch. There is a hole on the steering wheel that the pin sticks through and when the button is pressed it makes contact with the pin.

If I am thinking of the right part I used a spring out of ball point pen, Good luck.

I have the spring. The problem is the pin is not sticking through the hole enough to make contact with the button. I'm missing the bushing that goes on the pin.

If this is the contact for a four spoke sport wheel, every Camaro repro parts vendors sells them. Typical price is $5 or so. Just type Camaro horn contact kit into Google.

Interesting that a similar thing was just posted yesterday:

You can get it at your local NAPA store:

It's not a sport wheel. The horn button goes across the whole wheel.
