I have seen this come up before, and someone had a solution.
BUt I had a customer ask me about getting his center horn button to work after a power steering conversion.
I do remember something about bushings, ect.

I think it is Paul (in NY) on his Moose creek Maple - Image event page that has the instructions... Basically it involves insulated copper ring commutators with carbon brushes . go check out how they did it on older forklifts.
The contacts from an older Jeep column could also be made to work

There was an outstanding description of this adaptation, complete with pictures, on the old Big Electric forum several years ago. I shoulda saved it! :(
