Cleaned everything up, repainted, let it dry overnight and installed it this a.m. We're at 4 inches from the binnacle eyebrow and that seems fine.

I have a horn question now before I drive in the golden lady button.

Is there a clip or something that screws into the inside of the steering hub to act as a contact? There seems to be one copper/brass bit at the edge of the inside of the button, and I thought that should just touch the metal on the inside of the wheel hub and toot the horn, but when I tested last it wasn't good.

Maybe add a screw to one of the open holes inside the hub?

Assemblers, let me know. I don't want to be prying on that golden lady too much once it's done.

Addendum:

Holes near the edges of the hub...

Tab, tab, oooh, copper tab.
