Bowtie (yellow) on my horn button? And seatbelt insert?

I'm sure its the original horn button (ie. not a replacement), but all I can find are blue bowtie replacements. Did 69 have yellow and 70 have blue? Also With seatbelts (lap) I found blue "GM MARK OF EXCELLENCE" buttons (the inserts that you push to release the latch) but I swore I saw them in yellow in the past also, does anyone have info on this? I could be confuseing the seatbelt inserts with the Chevelle, Camero, Nova ones......???? Doug

All I have ever seen for the seat belt inserts for that year truck are the blue ones that you mentioned. I am pretty sure about this one.

All I can remember for the steering wheel is blue as well but I am not to sure about this one.

Anyone Else???

I have seen the gold bowtie horn button. I think it's from 73-up vans that still used the 69-72 truck style wheel. In 73 all bowties for trucks/vans went from blue to gold and I'd assume if you needed a replacement horn button after 72 you got a gold one. It's a theory anyway
