steering wheel switch

right now i have a GT grant steering wheel on my car. but i want to switch back to the stock one, because the GT grant steering wheel does not have a horn, and i need a horn to pass inspection. how do you take the stock steering wheel off another car to put on my car with the grant wheel on it? how does a steering wheel puller work?
thanks,

You'll have to take off the steering wheel adapter (part the grant wheel bolts to). The steering wheel puller looks like a balancer puller, bolts go through puller into wheel, then large bolt in center is tightened to pull the wheel off. Stock wheel has an intergrated hub, no need for the grant one.

I know this post is kinda old. But, if you really love your steering wheel and don't want to go back to stock, you could add buttons to your Grant wheel for the horn.

Some companies sell horn buttons. Or, you could use those little red nitrous oxide pushbuttons that mount to your wheel. (Just don't add stickers that say NOS to the outside of your car. )
