Default Please help, all I need to pass the safety is new horn pad

Does anybody know where I can find apreferably used horn pad, but still for cheap,to an 87 Mustang, this is the only thing thats stopping me from getting my car saftied. Mine looks just like this one. Also, I live in southern ontario, so if anyone knows of any good scrap yards, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Here's a link, cant seem to get the upload to work;

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOURS????.......if the contacts touch due to deteriorated foam....you can take it apart and get a thin piece of foam and cut all contact areas out and make it good as new..if that is indeed your issue

My mechanic just told me I need a new one, however, he did give me mine back to try and find another one, so tomorrow I'll take it apart and see what I can do, thanks for the input.

Thanks a lot, my mechanic never told me what was happening but when I took it home it barely had any foam left. So I just wanted to say thanks again because this morning I took the horn pad to the shop and brought her back home shortly there after.
