Steering Wheel Parts

I'm in need of the contact ring and the black plastic ring that supports it. These two items are found on the back side of the steering wheel. My car is an 88 Turbo Coupe with cruise control. The plastic ring on mine broke into three pieces and while checking it out I noticed that the plastic insulators between the three contact discs are deteriorating as well.
Thanks,

Rick

Carmen: Last week I tried my local Ford dealer for this part and he did a search and gave me a couple of leads and one of the dealers in PA had one in his inventory ($39 + shipping). It arrived yesterday, so I'm all set. Thanks for the link with the part number.
