You already knpw I gave up on the horn for now, but it makes sense for the ground wire to stay constant (outer contact) and the positive to complete the circuit upon pressing the button (inner contact) no? The wheel nut is actually the same size as a sparkplug socket and the airbag bolts are allen key (Can't recall size right now).
Well ... is it done yet????? LOL .... Let's see pics soon.
D'oh!!! That's part of the air bag mechanisms. Oh well, plan on putting it back on?? No biggy. Damn horn eh? Atleast yours worked for a second LOL...
that must suck i wired my grant gt wheel and never had a second of trouble are you grounding of the wheel itself and did you try switching the things on the horn button
I'm jus gonna use this out the wondow if I can't get mine working.
You know that thing that you broke... umm... the clockspring
......... well theres a little c-clip that holds that into place, no need to break it there cowboy
My clockspring looks like that also! Haha, I had already sold the bags, so I figured @!#$ it, I found the c-clip after the carnage. I must say pulling a c-clip and having it come off would've been boring as hell.
I don't think my horn will ever work, the plastic piece from the airbag that twisted into the column with the wire, well the plastic piece it locks into broke when I pulled the bag....and I imagine you'd need that piece.
Appreciate it! I have the wheel, just need to order the damn hub!
yea, i riped that black thingy out of mine too. supposedy theres a "snap" feature but i never found it.
how can you not see the snap ring.....
its right on top of the thing on the steering shaft, right inside the yellow part
only reason im really saying anything is because if you ever wanna go back to the stock wheel and airbag, you just broke a pretty expensive piece.

when i didn my horn i just ran the red power wire to one of the tabs on the horn then rand a ground from the steering wheel nut to the metal wire and soldered it up and its working fine.
The piece that the red power wire locks into, broke on my POS, so I'm stuck doing it some alternative way. Need to find a way to tap into that same signal I suppose!
I imagine I'll find the wire along the column somewhere.

If your talking about the white piece of plastic I removed mine. Then jammed the spring with wire down in the hole and wedged a ball of tape in there to hold it down. The white plastic thing wouldnt fit with the hub adapter.

Nah this piece where you originally slid the piece down, and rotated it, when I first removed the airbag, I twisted it to release it and the locking portion broke. So I finished it off.
I'm sure I can connect to the same signal somewhere else and ground a Jason said, and be all set-
