I feel ilke I made a big step today!
I installed the new wiring harness on my (non-adjustable column) trafficator. The unit was pretty gummed up with old grease and grunge. Once apart and clean, I removed the remnants of paint that was left on the main housing (who knows when it was painted...). After polishing it up with some black shoe polish (liquid as there was no solid in the house) it looked pretty good. Not as new mind you, but pretty good nonetheless.
The paint on the inside of the horn button was flaking off, so I removed what was left of that and resprayed it with some Testors model paint. Again, not perfect due to some crazing in the plastic itself, but passes my muster.
After assembly and preliminary testing (off the car) it looks to act as good as new; nice sharp clicks when setting the turn signals and a resounding click when it's cancelled by rotating the collar.
Too bad I don't know if the steering wheel is on straight or I'd put it on today!
