230SL Horn Button Attaching Screws

Looking for source for the white plastic screws that attach the horn button to the steering wheel. Can't seem to find on line.

The Mercedes Classic Center should still have them.

For ordering through the dealer you do not need part number from here. The dealers have EPC where our cars are perfectly visible. There are also 3 rubber buffers in the wheel - you may check their condition too and order if need be.

Technically they are not screws, but barbed nipples that are pushed on. :o   

They are relatively soft when new and harden with age. When hardened, it makes removing the button difficult.
