What's it called?

Well, that's strange. Any time I've needed a part from IAP that wasn't in stock I have to call back until the part shows up before ordering.

If you have problems getting your part with IAP - keeps being backordered - give Mark Allison a try. He is a great trustworthy source for used parts (and advice). He has helped me on numerous occasions and the parts arrive quickly (even all the way to Hawaii).

Good luck,
Michael

Well I guess i need to check out the site more now that its back up. I have a parts car with what looks to be a fairly good panhard bar if you want it. I'm even what you might call local in Sammamish.

Well, thanks Brad! IAP call and told me they shipped on mon. I should have it Thur or Fri. However, the parts on the inside of my horn don't work. the collor is broken and the brass ring has a hole in it. If you have replacements I would be willing to buy them from you. If not I will probably just put a switch for it on the console.

I have a stock plastic wood looking steering wheel. It doesn't have the horn button but everything looks good on it. How's $15 sound. If its what your looking for. I can send a pic of it if you'd like just pm me your email and I'll send it over.

Hey Brad,
I don't need the steering wheel itself, I just need the parts for the horn.
My steering wheel is decent looking. But thanks!

Hi Denise,

If you need a horn button for a 79 or newer spider, I have one you can have for free. Just let me know.

OK, the new panhard rod finally came in (last week). I managed to get the old broken one off. I had to remove the rear driver side wheel for leverage on the nut, I had to jack up the passenger side to get the other bolt out, but I was able to do it myself (in the rain). Now the problem is getting the new panhard rod on, seems the rear shrunk and the rod doesn't fit, maybe 1/2 " off. Any ideas? Could it be maybe that the car is jacked up? I'm I making this more difficult than it really is?

Ah, I too have a story regarding this mysterious 'bar'. The story begins
mid-chapter with a spinning stick. Another story.
Anyway, when the tow guys arrived, while I was at work, obviously
after a liquid lunch, they attached the towhook from their flatbed to
this bar to get it onto the truck. By the time they arrived at the shop,
the bar was shaped like a 'V'. Coop, my awesome mechanic, indicated
this easy fix was a panhard bar. I found one easily, he put it on in a
jiffy and that was that. Another relatively inexpensive repair.

What's it called?

Horn Button?
