Looking for the actual bakelite horn relay! Yes the part.

The reproduction one posted above is actually correct for the older full size cars 61-63, but as pointed out, will fit and function perfectly in place of the on on your 65GS.  The horn relay from a 64 Skylark is also the same as the one on a 65GS.
'64 Skylark 2dr ht 4 speed, 300-4
'65 GS ht, 4 speed,2-4s,AC,PS,PB,PW,Pseat,Tilt
'66 Skylark 2dr ht 300-2 automatic
'78 Yamaha DT 400 2 stroke
'88 Ford F-150 4x4 (used to be 4x2)
'89 Ford F-350 4x4
'03 Honda Accord Coupe V6 6-speed manual (daily driver)

Mine quit working so I removed the cover and cleaned the contacts. Works well now. I picked up a spare in a wrecking yard from a 65 Cutlass. Got the entire unit with the bakelite mount. Same as the 65 GS.
