Default Re: 1969 Camaro: 890 vs 862 Horn Relay

Hi Mark,
I think if you look into it a little more you'll find that 1115862 horn relays were used in the beginning of 69 production and then changed to the 1115890 sometime during March or April and this relay saw use throughout the rest of 69 production. 1970 models all got the 1115890 as for what I've been able to determine. The 1115889 relay was only used on the assembly line for the 1971 model year. 1972 changed to 6273328. Chevrolet superceded all earlier horn relay numbers from 66-71 in 1971 to the 889 which could explain why your car has that relay on it looking like it's been there a while. Also explains why it's so difficult to find NOS versions of these horn relays prior to the 889's.
Hope this helps.
Chris
