Do the dash lights on a 1947 Plymouth change as the speed changes ?

Question 1
Do the dash lights on a 1947 Plymouth change as the speed changes ?...  

Answers
1)   On old vehicles running generators, it's not unusual for lights to glow brighter along with engine RPM increase. But that has nothing to do with the speed the vehicle is travelig, except to how it pertains to engine speed. - Fred

2)   Sounds like it has a generator instead of an alternator. At idle the output voltage would likely be lower than at driving speeds. It's pretty inherent of that type of charging system. Check the voltage regulator for proper function any way. - The Bass Player

3)   Just above idle speeds, not higher speeds. - badbill1941

4)   no they may be a bit dimmer at an idle because of the 6volt generator - Voice of Reason

Question 2
How to disable the horn on a 1999 Plymouth Voyager?...  I have a 1999 Plymouth Voyager SE. Every time I turn the steering wheel the horn goes off and it's extremely loud. I found the fuse box but none of them said anything about the horn. Unless I'm just that car dumb and those abbreviations were completely foreign, I'm sure none of them said anything about a horn. Is there a way I could disable the horn?

Answers from real mechanics or people who have experienced the same problem with the same vehicle is preferred.

Answers
1)   Pull out the fuse for the horn.
Or cut the wire to the horn.
Have someone honk it, and then follow your ears to the sound. There are 2 wires. Cut one and tape it up. - thinkaboutmoney

2)   Your problem is the bad clockspring...it's underneath the steering wheel and replacement should NOT be attempted by anyone other than a certified mechanic. That being said...find the horn itself and un-plug..this is the safest and easiest. Best of luck.... - Joseph P

3)   Take wires off horn. Get car to repair shop. - badbill1941

3)   it depends on the type of parts you are looking for

Mechanical parts should be pretty easy - they share a lot of parts with other models

Body part and trim parts are the most problematic - not much is sold in the restoration market for these - you might try desert valley auto parts in phoenix as a start - roadrunner426440
