How to wire up MOMO steering wheel horn?

I am installing a MOMO steering wheel tonight and need to know how to wire the horn. Has anyone here done this? There is only two wires so it can't be to hard. But the instructions with the wheel have a few different ways to wire it. If anyone has some input; I would be glad to accept it.

Nobody has an aftermarket steering wheel? Or did you guys just leave the horn disabled? I want to put in one of those horns that you can hear from a mile away.

I have those instructions, but see how there is three different ways for different cars. Which one is the one I need to use?

If you have the correct hub, the wire to the horn button plugs right in. I have had two of them already....it is the same with the FD's also....chk it.

Yo,


I just did this to my car.

1. Chuck the 1 dual blade ended wire they give you in the MOMO hub box.

2. Take the one wire from the hub, and put it on the one blade they have on the horn button.

3. Done!


That'll be $25.00 please. Thank you, come again!

Rarest comes through when you'd least expect it!

I got the monte carlo 350mm. I wanted a nice clean looking wheel, that wasn't to flashy. Lucky for me it is the cheapest one they make. And my horn button has two blades on it. One is marked ground and the other is hot I guess. But the hub itself probably grounds it huh? So I'm guessing that the wire goes to the hot blade. Maybe your wheel is different than mine. My hub has one wire attached to the base of it, and I have another wire that is attached to nothing with two female ends on it. On the horn button there are two male blades. There is also a lil ring that the button snaps into that has one male blade on it. So in all there are three male blades, and three female ends (two of them are on the loose wire).

Now is that how I hook it up? And which wire goes to the ground; the wire on the base or the wire attached to the thin ring on top?

Yo,


Bro, I'm tellin' ya, don't stress the dual females. You don't need it. The horn button grounds with the hub or something.

I got a Sparco 383 Suede, with a MOMO hub, and I just got a plain black MOMO buttom, the Sparco one was too busy.

So I know this works. *grin* Just take the one wire from the hub and stick it on the hot blade on the horn. Put the horn button in the hub, because it won't work until it's seated.

And what's all this about me coming through?! I'm a virtual font of rotary expertise!! *snicker*
