Hi all
I've just aquired an Italvolanti steering wheel & boss from the mk2 16v golf, but when I fitted it in my Scirocco the horn is constantly on. This is due to the screws in the boss shorting out against the horn contact. It's fine while its lose, but as soon as you tighten the nut up, its on constant. If anyone knows how to fix this, I'd be eternally grateful.
If not, my plan was to buy a new horn push button from car builders solutions (great online shop, just google them) to mount eslewhere & just pull the horn wires out to the new position. The only thing I can find online, is that the horn button needs to be secure & within easy reach of the driver. Does anyone know anymore than this or is anyone an MoT tester with some advice on this one.
Cheers
Robin
