 Heh... right now, I've just got dangling center.  Makes the SO look at me

 Thanks -- I didn't know that these things actually came off :)... lucky
 me, I guess.  $3/pop doesn't sound too bad, like you said, when you've got
 no horn cover.

BTW you might have to remove the broken 1/2 of the tab which may still be in
the socket on your horn cover. They come out pretty easily with a screwdriver.

How did the odometer repair go? That is the tougher job here.
