Reply to "new steering wheel and horn button"

What i need it a thin flat ring of copper sheet with a thin sheet of insulating material bonded to one side and a wire soldered to the copper. This commutator ring we will call it will sit in the bottom pocket of my new wheel adapter and come into contact with the hot 12v commutator on the top of my steering shaft replicating the way the setup was designed to function on my steering column which looks to be out of a 71 beetle. This was the correct way to make the horn work without having a wire twisted and spun over and over until it eventually breaks and shorts out. This is the way my old after market wheel and adapter was set up.  I will be looking to see if the commutator ring I described is offered for sale before i commence fabricating one. I will keep you informed.  Thanks for the info. It appears this is an old issue many have had.
