I have a problem with the horn button for the Grant GT Steering wheel on my third gen. Everything went on fine, the steering wheel looks great. When I got to the horn I thought it would take a few minutes, I pushed it in so it would line up with the notches on the fiber. It just wouldn't fit, so I sanded the edges of the fiber just barely, now it keeps springing out. The part design is so stupid, not like the manufacturers couldn't have predicted it might possibly cause problems. :P I think whoever designed this was very dumb. I'd settle for screws on the front, as long as the thing works. Anyways, I need to get this thing working b/c of inspection. Anyone have the same problem, is it possible to get it working without some ugly hack?

I would like to know as well. I have the Grant GRT742 steering wheel and having about the same problem.

cant believe they sell this crap. going to fabricate a horn button.

i think you screwed your self when you sanded the fiberiod disc . i installed one last week with no problem . all i can say is get another install kit and follow directions to the letter . good luck .

the directions that come with the adapter kit is not clear. after the adapter is slid on the shaft, you need to get the wire out, and the disc needs to be on before the bolts. put the wheel on and put the 3 bolts on. the aluminum sticker needs to be on the wheel too ( i know the directions didnt say that on mine. plug in the wire to the disc. the spring goes on next, then the horn button.

maybe, but looking around I see tons of people with the same problems. Do you think a MOMO horn would fit on the grant wheel. Been looking at the MOMO horns, they look like they actually work.

did you break the wire?

Thanks for the response.

No the wire is fine. I have the disk on and the wire plugged into the fiber disk. There's a spring I needed to tape on the cap. But when I try to slide the cap onto the fiber it didn't go on, even twisting it like hell. The notches all line up but it didn't slide left and right. I eventually unbolted and took the fiber off to see how well it would fit the cap, the fiber was too big. So I sanded the fiber a little bit on all sides and now is seems to be just a little too small, which is nuts because I barely sanded it at all.

Right now I'm trying to come up with an idea to fabricate a horn button or to get it to work without the cap falling off. Looking at the MOMO horns on the web, I was wondering if they would fit. Not going to buy one until I know for sure though.

The steering wheel is great, it's just the horn that's a pain in the ***.

btw the the wire works when the battery is plugged in. I'm just having trouble getting the mechanism together.

your factory wheel had a big spring that threaded on the shaft a little bit. thats what holds the disc off the wheel. if you dont use your spring its no going to work.

the cap pushes on then you turn it so it locks.

If your just trying to pass inspection wire up a button from radio shack and mount it to the wheel temporarily. That is until you get it fixed...

couple dollars and they let it slide... at least round my area.

LOL my dad looked at it and we painstakingly got it on, barely. I'm afraid it might fall off again but if it does I'll go with your suggestion haha

Thanks everyone for the replies. I wont be buying another grant steering wheel for my future cars. :P will consider other brans in the future.
