Hi Guys,

I have just bought a Mtech 1 stearing wheel (Cheers Andyp!) to swap for my original 3 spoke. I am going to put the Mtech on tomorrow, pretty straight forward i know, but what about the horn? In the 3spoke as you all know the horn is in the middle and the Mtech 1 has a button on each spoke, do i need to do anything with the wiring for the horn? Any advice would be a great help.

Cheers

Remember after you have the wheel straight and undone the nut in the middle, to put the key in the ignition and turn it to the on position to release the steering wheel.

cheers dude

very nice clean car you have there.
