The index of that Battle of Budapest book makes it difficult to find reference to 8th SS Kav Div but here is one extract.(it doesn't list units in the index only names and places.)

South and west of the hill, in front of the Karoly kiraly Barracks (today Petofi Barracks) and in Farkasret Cemetery, the 8th SS Cavalry Division's companies were posted in the front line , with the battery of their anti-aircraft artillery immediately behind them, and a Hungarian anti-aircraft battery behind the cemetery . The defence was further supported by Hungarian assault guns and Hetzer anti-tank guns .
