1957 horn

OK, I am sure I will get some grief over this question, so here we go:

Where is the horn button on a 1957 Chevy Truck?
Is it the steering wheel button?

Yes, the center

The parts you will need to make it work, plus a Horn assembly mounted near the front of the engine area

Don't forget about the horn relay switch on the firewall.

Re: 1957 horn

You don't need all of the parts shown in the third pic. You only need the round white contact with brass ends. The round disc in the next pic provides the spring action and also makes the contact. The horn button clips directly to it.
