Horn contact kit for Pontiac Deluxe Steering Wheel
Hi,
Any chance of Ames reproducing a three button contact kit for a Pontiac Deluxe Wheel (e.g. common on 69-75?) Pontiacs? It seems the brass contacts become corroded and temperamental after 50 years. Thanks

last I checked, neither the 1965 or 1966 deluxe wheel contact is available. I believe you will need to find a used one. The sport wheel switch is very similar but does not work and I don't believe it was used on any other cars.

At this point there is no talk of reproducing the contact kit. Keep posted though as we are always researching new products.

Quick math. $5000 for tooling. $10 per switch min quantity 1000 = $15000 investment. sell for $30 retail. Wholesale to dealers for $18. Break even point 833 switches. That is not going to happen in our lifetime for that switch. Sorry. :(
