The rubber insulator or "Horn Button Separator" is available from Bobs Automobilia bobsautomobilia.com for $4.50 The part is HS-370 and it is on page 75 of the online catalog. I replaced mine at least 10 years ago so I can't recall anything helpful to this conversation.

Oliver, probably the best supplier of any clip or fastener would be Restoration Specialties. I am sure they could ship to Germany. https://www.restorationspecialties.com/

I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the Battery Disconnect Switch. This type of switch transmits current through the threads when the knob is turned down to make contact. Apparently the former owner of the car did not tighten it securely and corrosion built up on the threads due to...

I purchased the valves, guides and the majority of the parts to rebuild my 1948 248 from: Terrill Machine, INC 1000 COUNTY RD 454 DELEON TEXAS 76444 Phone: (254) 893-2610 My rebuilder approved all the parts and their prices were the best of the several sources I researched.

I think that washer acts as a spring. I don't have my shop manual, I left it in the car when I sent it for an engine overhaul. It has been in the shop 15 months thanks to Covid.
