Does anyone know what the horn button was plated with? It looks like nickel plating. It's not as shiny as chrome.

Here is a picture of the one for my '69 C-50. Definitely bright chrome around the outer ring and brushed or satin chrome in the center. [img]https://www.stovebolt.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/download/Number/40197/filename/69 C50 Horn Button.jpg[/img]

JLucas Suspect that is chrome process on die cast,not like the older ones chrome on flat steel then stamped out. If you notice after market chrome not near as durable as old original.
