Is that not the later horn push from the 1098 car?
The 1098 one has a clip arrangement to hold them in - as far as I can tell this is the earlier one that is held in with a screw. The screw makes the earth bridge from the switch to the column (ground).
buellzebub,
Underneath the horn push looks correct!
What I think you are missing is the parts that fit on the steering column shaft. A wire runs through the hollow centre of the column poking out under the horn push and is held at the end in a clear plastic collar. The collar slides inside the column to keep it central and is spring loaded. The end of the wire is held to the collar with a small circlip.
At the other end of the wire, it pokes out the side of the column shaft. At this position there should be a plastic ring with a brass sleeve. The wire should contact the sleeve, (the sleeve should be isolated from the column). The power is applied to the brass ring with a contact arm from the indicator assembly.
So the power (live) goes from indicator switch to the brass ring, up the wire and when the switch is pressed it should earth via the horn switch to the column.
I hope that fill in any gaps you might have in 'what bit does what and where it should be!
