Horn
1 - 5 of 5 Posts
It's very simple to remove. Just pop it off by prying the horn button on one area gently with a screwdriver. It basically snaps on. There are three adjustment screws to move the brass coloured plate in or out . I hope you dont't have any trouble with the screws because I had some strip the threads in the column on me.

Hope you don't find what I did. The horn contact parts are copper as stated. A ring with a spring loaded wiper. On my GT the copper ring was worn through in the wheel straight position causing no contact. See if yours works if you turn the wheel from straight. If so, bet it's the same cause. Otherwise the previous posts give great tips!
Anybody out there know of a good fix for mine?

new ring and pin
The wiper pin and copper ring can both be replaced. I think I have 5-10 of the copper rings, but the pins are a bit trickier. I know I have at least a couple of used ones, so I'll double check everything tommorrow when I get off the mid shift and let you know.

1E - Other Electrical/Gauges/Instrument PanelI have been contemplating replacing my non-working clock in my GT with a voltmeter/oil temp gauge from Opel GT Source or a vacuum gauge, if I can find one that fits. The voltmeter/oil temp gauge from OGTS looks very nice. My question is, where do you hook the sending unit for the oil temp...

In the instrument panel there are several bulbs used for illumination of the gauges, lights over the switches, and the cluster between the tach and the speedo. I have my instrument panel almost rewired completely. I want to put...
