Horn Button
I am refurbishing the interior of my '72 Stingray (replacing my console, etc) and am working on my steering column. I want to remove the horn button and repaint it and the steering column. I've seen several posts that indicate the horn button is removed by prying it off the steering wheel. Is that all there is to it? My horn button appears to be metal, so it should clean up nicely.

Carefully pry the horn cap assembly from the steering wheel using a small, thin bladed screwdriver. If you merely yank on the horn cap it can be damaged. The cap assembly consists of three pieces that are all staked together. At this time, you might want to check that the three stakes are secure. You may even want to add some JB Weld to the stakes for insurance.
