    I want to get a new steering wheel for my car sometime soon. im thinking on getting one of those grant steering wheels that are similar to the 60's mustang. Is installing one going to be easy or difficult? I also have another problem. The car has a horn but it doesnt work, I think. Is the button for it on the steering wheel also? If it is then it doesnt work. I couldnt find anything under the foam around the center of the steering wheel. (its kind of falling off.) I saw the wire running from the horn to under the steering wheel, (along with all theses other wires, probably the turn signals) but then I dont know where it ends up. Is it hard to set up the horn in the new steering wheel? and whats wrong with the horn? thanks alot:tiphat:

    The horn in these cars uses provides the 12 volts through the column, to the horn. Chances are you could just have a blown fuse or a bad horn. After market wheels usually have mounting kits available to make your horn work correctly.
