    I have a cheap Grant 13.5" 3 spoke steering wheel, which works nice, but it has that cheap horn button in the center that has a spring under it and you push it on and turn it 45* to make it stick....It takes a couple of "push, turn, release" before you finally get all three notches lined up and caught up, and half the time, only two catch and it sits on the wheel high on one side.

    How expensive, or how high in the model numbers do you have to go before you get a decent horn button?

    It seems like the Grant GT "might" have a decent button but i have not seen one in person and do not know for sure.

    I really want one that looks like this with the 4 spokes...

    I know the signature series (700 numbers I think?) have the good horn buttons. in Grants line up they used to run approx 65- 75 bucks,... probly closer to a bill now?
