Installing Le Carra Steering Wheel Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Already Gone** · 07-23-2015, 05:03 PM

I am going to replace my stock steering wheel on my 72 with the Le Carra I had on my other truck. I'll be keeping the original as it's in pretty good shape with a 70's wrap on it. When i got the Le Carra I never used the horn wire because the horn never worked on the other truck. My question is does the flat connector clip into the back of the plastic centre piece. I ask because the connector is bent back into itself and unless I use tremendous pressure it won't clip onto the flat connector on the plastic piece. I hope the pics show my problem. While I'm here if someone can tell me why my photos keep getting posted sideways I'd appreciate it.

Yes it hooks on the back of the horn button and the other end should fit inti the turn signal cancel ring.

Thanks. I was just afraid of breaking it is so tight.

Are you replacing the stock wheel? It looks in very good shape.

Yes, I had the Le Carra on my last truck for 6/7 years and I really liked its size and feel. I will be keeping the original with the wrap.
