Horn Issues/Help finding parts

So, here's the problem.
Got the car back in February. 2000 Max GLE. horn didn't work when I got it. Reconnected all the wiring and replaced the relay and horn wouldn't stop firing. Pulled relay for temporary solution. Got around to taking apart the wheel to have a look at the horn switch, and here's what I found:

So, as it looks, the horn's being grounded at the wheel. And 3 of the 4 plastic spacer things are missing/crumbled/broken/trash/DOA. Any idea where I can get new ones? Can't seem to find any part numbers or aftermarket replacements. Maybe it's just what I'm searching for but can't find. Really trying to avoid ordering an entire steering wheel just for these. Any help finding these is appreciated.

This is what junk yard are made for. A whole wheel is 7 bucks, here, or just take the freebie pieces you need.
