Default Steering wheel horn issues

I went to replace my horn switches in my 95, when I went to connect the spring contact the plastic piece that is in the column broke. The small piece that holds the post on the spring contact was snapped off so it won't hold the horn spring piece in. Is this part available? How would I go and replace it? Is it part of the turn signal switch assembly?
Thanks

Sounds as if you're describing the 'tower' on the directional cancelling cam.
