HZ Horn Centre fixing kit.

**HZSanFan** · 17-09-2021, 09:20 AM

Would anyone have a picture (or better still have one for sale) of the HZ horn centre fixing kit. I have the horn pad but only half of the plastic fixing ring that attaches the horn pad to the steering wheel horn boss. I have checked eBay and various reproduction stores without luck. I was going to look into getting one 3D printed, any help appreciated. Cheers

You're talking about the white plastic part that the horn cap slips over?
Under that is the alloy part, same shape, that the horn contacts & the 4 springs mount on. Do you have all that?

I have the complete horn setup except the white plastic retainer that the HZ horn pad slips over. I have half of it and if I can't source one I was going to look into having on 3D printed.

Oops, I forgot about HZ having the different cap, I always remember those caps on UC torana & SL/E statesmans

Sorry, not selling any gear til I finish some projects. But I will keep you in mind..... If it was me, I'd be using the Allen key headed horn cap, IMHO they look way better! The rare spares early ones look identical.
Then keeping an eye out for an original while you drive your HZ

I have seen plenty of Q to X caps and fittings but haven't been able to find anything for the Z's as yet. I will be able to make what have work but just trying to see if anything was out there, Cheers
