Steering column part question

Greetings,

My horn is not working. There are two parts that I need a little help finding. One is the wire with the spring and the second is the flat round piece that the other part fits into. Any ideas where i can get these? I thin I saw the flat round one at auto zone but the wire with the spring I can't locate.

Thanks!!!

The wire and spring....most any aftermarket steering wheel adapter comes with one, but you could probably hit up the local boneyard and "steal" one for free. The boneyard workers probably wouldn't even care. I believe almost all GM w/o airbags are the same.

FWIW I took the Grant steering wheel off my old Regal and put it on my Nova, I reused the original spring and wire supplied with the steering wheel kit, it fits both cars.

Of course trying to run a number is fine if that is what you want to do but beware if you walk on the edge sometimes you fall off.
