.....broke one of the horn buttons off when carrying too much stuff into the house. I literally spent 30+ minutes trying to find it...to no avail. So the solution? K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid).....

...remove the other one! The red button actually pops of but the cone that it attaches to had to be cut off and then some to get them to be approximately the same height. Long term plan is refinish the steering wheel and will replace the horn buttons with something with a lower profile.
I also got a hold of some polishing pads and orbital sander from a buddy, always great to have great people willing to help you out! He gave me 1500, 2000 and 3000 grit polishing/sanding pads. Last time I stopped at 1500 so ya that was a mistake.
I quickly realized doing it by hand was a MISTAKE! A orbital sander was the way to go for sure. It looked so much more even as I sanded the lights. Just a Harbor Freight 4" orbital sander. I have a 4" sander but it just vibrates, it doesn't rotate...not sure what it is called.
Here is how they looked from my previous attempt and stopping at 1500 and then using a polishing compound. (Turtle Wax, light/medium)

Then after using the 1500, 2000 and 3000 grit pads.

Finally after using the Turtle Wax polishing compound(light/medium).

The close up is of the drive side as it was 'perfectly clear' before i messed with it, i just wanted them to have the same clarity. Really happy with the results! Not brand new clear but for headlights that are 17+ years old, i am very pleased with the out come.
