Is it possible...need horn button?
When I purchased my 1970 GTO, one of the steering wheel horn button was missing (actually found it in the console broken) and am wondering if it is possible to replace/re-install (assuming I can find one)?
Or am I relegated to trying to find a matching wheel or a nice formula or wood wheel? I realize I can get a reproduction, but trying to safe some money and have read about the spotty quality/strength of the repro formula wheels. Will any later model formula-style steering wheels fit? Any info or recommendations? If I had a 3D printer, I'd try to replicate.

Spare button will need to be '70 saddle color unless one wants to prep & color match.
Have quite a few '69-72 deluxe steering wheels, all are full grain rim wheels, one black one is missing a horn button, as well. Will keep an eye open in old stock boneyards as have few trips planned this Summer.

Thought about that, but don't think it would hold for very long. Last resort before buying a new wheel I suppose.
