Don't know much about the horn contact ring on the Vanagons (yet), but I've been pulling parts from an 86 in a junkyard. I think I remember it still had a steering wheel (black, no center pad) attached, I can be your salvager (actual cost and shipping) if you need something.

So in the midst of tearing everything apart to replace my front heater blower (success!!!) I somehow got things a little wonky when I put the steering wheel back on and that contact ring snagged on the little tab and it tore the ring at the bottom. That's no good.

It there any way to replace that or am I kinda SOL?
