Long story short, camera battery died, power out at the house...so here is what I got. I also realized I have an 86...so that probably will not be so helpful.

I bought mine from www.partsheaven.com along with a few smaller pieces. Also, I used the switch assembly from my airbag car by drilling a small hole where contact fits. I then mated the horn positive wire to the post on the horn contact. This made for a very clean install.
Sorry about not taking pictures. If you post pictures of the back of your switch assembly, I can probably tell you where the contact post is supposed to fit.

i think the fact you have an '86 makes a difference for me. i have a second wire, green/yellow, that probably needs to go somewhere (maybe not).

i'll try and get a picture tonight of my switch and see if the 928 piece will work for me. does the brown/white wire (originally went to the rotary switch) connect to the 928 piece? then that's it???

Will the threaded hole in the upper right hand corner of my multiswitch work with that $4 928 part? The original wire to the horn is taped off in blue at the bottom of the pic...

I need to look at the wiring diagram when I get home. I believe the horn wire is a brown/white that has a yellow plug on airbag cars. That threaded hole is not what you need as that should be for the plastic cover that fits over the switches. You'll have to drill a small hole to slide the 928 horn contact into.
I'm pretty sure it socket #71 on the back of the combo swith assembly. There isn't a hole for it in the airbag equiped cars. I found a drill bit that was the same size as the post on the back of the 928 contact and drilled a hole through#71 position. I used a little glue to hold the 928 contact in the right position (you'll have to play with it a little to make sure it stays in contact with the hub as you turn the wheel). I then crimped a pin onto the Brown/white horn wire and slid it onto the 928 contact post.
I hope this helps.

What Daniel says, works.... BTE- some airbag cars already have the hole, some do not... I know of several 89s that do, but, my 88 turbo S does not... Gluing can be a PITFA, but, take your time & it will work... There are several threads in the archives on this... I learned from several others... Make sure you have the horn grounded & make sure the key is turned to the right before testing the horn- otherwise, will not work & you'll end up going back through it all again for no reason... Ask me how I know...
