Well, after searching the Barrie Flea Market last year and contacting almost everyone I know who has Dodge's and Plymouths I finally found a new horn button for the 37. I was a little skeptical when I saw it on e-bay, as it was being sold by a Jeep parts site from Texas. You couldn't really see anything but the top and I didn't know what the insignia was, but for $45 I thought that it was worth a try. So I ordered it and waited for delivery.
At least it was in a Mopar Parts box! |
An Insignia that I didn't recognize! |
I was really excited when the package arrived .... and I opened it to find a Mopar parts box with a Chrysler parts number. I looked at it and it was brand new, which I was not expecting. Here's what it looked like when I took it out of the package.
The metal is very light and it was easily removed without damaging the rest of the ring. So I did. Then I removed the ring from the original horn button and placed it on the new one.
Now its ready to go back into the steering wheel.

So, I've promissed my 'baby' that I will put her back together soon. The next time that I take her out, I'll be able to blow the horn without worrying whether it will ever stop.
I only have one problem. It is so shiny!! I will have to find a way to buff it off a little, so it doesn't look so new.
See you on the road!!
