Im looking for a button for a 1915-16 T. In usable or rebuildable condition, but the car is original, so it doesn't need to be pretty! I stole this picture from an old thread.
Thanks!!!

Nick I may be able to help if you can't find one locally. Our Canadian cars used the same button right up to the end of T production. The two tabs to mount it went straight down rather than bent at right angles to mount the switch on the flat.

I know there is one on a steering column in the barn but do not know what shape it is in?

They show up NOS on ebay every now and then.

Dodge Brothers used them, also, on their early cars. They were screwed to the inside driver side door.

I also need the same horn button for my Canadian T. I thought this one was offered at Langs (

I believe the button the dealers sell is just the black bit on which you push. The steel body and the innards of the switch I have never seen in a catalogue.
