What do i need to buy to hook up horn on comfort grip wheel? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I had a shop install the column and wheel and I am not sure what I am missing. I would have thought they would have brought up the fact that I didn't have everything but that was not the case.

Does your horn, itself, actually work?

The pin is what makes contact.
I usually have to shorten them some.

The truck cancle cam has always worked for me (or the van one in your case). Do you not have the original cancle cam?

think this is what I need. The horn button has no spring to it when you try to press it to make the horn work.

I am as confused as ever. This it what I have now. I bought the spring and pin pictured as well.

You still missing the white piece you have circled in the previous photo.
It should be under the steering wheel hub.

Thanks. I know it seems obvious but I was not sure if it was needed. I was guessing in the previous pic. I did also check the horn and it does work.

The cancel cam (the white piece circled) will most likley be black. Tilts for 70-72 trucks and mid 70's vans are black, and non-tilt columns are white. They don't interchange. So be sure you get the correct one.
