Question Grant Signature series wheel

I bought one on Ebay and had to go get the 2" extension (part #4000). One problem I have is that I can't figure out how I hook up the horn on this style of wheel. Also, do I need to use the 4" black disc that comes with #4000?-I just attached the wheel to the 'claw' due to the horn interfering.

Im not sure what that black disc is for, my sig series came with that same 2" spacer & didnt use it. I installed a 1" spacer to move the wheel away from me belly! If you have the sig series plastic horn button, my guess is that you are missing the wire that pops into the sig cancellor in place of the stock pin. the wire then hooks to the back of the horn button, &the horn gets it ground threw the ring that holds the button to the wheel. There should be a stamped tin plate tween the wheel & spacer to retain the horn button(center hole slightly smaller than that in the wheel, & holes for the wheel mount screws). Good luck.....crazy AL

Thanks longhorn, I tinkered with it for about 5 horn blasts and didn't want to piss off the neighbors-I think you're on to something. Sounds like I'm doing what you recommend. I'm just going to have to go to a parking lot out in the boonies and figure this thing out.
I had a challenger style Grant wheel and there's a trick to getting those to work also. Where's that 18 yr old kid when I need him??:p
