Horn button help - Monte Carlo steering wheel

[Doober]

So here's what I have, and I'm having trouble tracking down a picture of the rest of what I would need for the horn button... I seem to remember some sort of little retainer that holds the horn button, but I don't know what it looks like or how to install it.

Damn horn button

Guys I could use some help. I am trying to figure out what the hell I'm doing wrong but I can not get the horn parts to play nice. Here's a little background, I'm working on a 86 SS and noticed I had no horn. Took the cap off and found the cap retainer but the rest of the stuff is missing....

That horn wire is for the other steering wheel. For the center button horn, the wire is just a stub with a contact that sits just above the surface of the center of the wheel (http://www.elcaminocentral.com/articles/elkysteering/loose_stcolumn/DCP_0747.JPG .

Then the flat round horn spring goes in. Then a metal cup sits on top of the spring and is either held in by the metal screws and the insulator shown in the link or by plastic screws and no insulator (the plastic screws always get loose; don't use those screws). Then a plastic piece (PN 329738) is covered by the vinyl horn button. The plastic piece snaps into the metal cup. Don't forget to add the emblem of your choice into the center of the vinyl horn button.

Thanks O.D. I'll have to send you a message

Thanks for the pics too, does that stub press up on the metal cup? I'm trying to visualize how the relay is grounded, and that's the only way I can figure it right now.

The stub will make contact with the curved round spring plate when the cup presses down on it.
