So I felt the need to post again here. It has happened again. This time on the way down from Hell Roaring Lake in the Sawtooths(google it....its wonderful). I was coming down the mountain, and I hit a well hidden hole in the road with the driver side front wheel. My head was thrown into the "oh **** handle". I saw white. It almost knocked me out. I had to stop for about 15 minutes and try to control myself. I very badly wanted to tear that thing out of the car and throw it. But thankfully my wife stopped laughing at me long enough to remind me of how expensive parts are for the disco.
If anyone else has experienced this sensation please post so I don't feel like such a dork. Also, the back seat wont lock up. The pull handle is sticking up and a red band is exposed. Does anyone know how to get the seat to go back to its upright position? Thanks.

So I was driving down the road when all of a sudden I was struck in the face by something. It landed on my hand and for some reason I thought it was a bug or something and threw my arm(with the object on it) towards the window. It flew out. About 3 seconds later I realized that it was the horn button. It had popped out and the spring was hanging out of the steering wheel. By the time I went back to look for it, the piece had been run over several times.
I have been looking for this piece for a while now. Several places have the switches including the plastic button, but not the button by itself. Anyone know of a place that might sell me just the piece?
And for the rest of you, don't be a victim of your Discos abuse....I will be holding support sessions for those that need it.
