    Steering wheel removal is driving me nuts!

     



    Help! Does anyone know how to get the stupid horn button off a '30s era Ford Banjo steering wheel? I need to get to the nut underneath so as to remove the wheel. I feel like I'm going to break something (hopefully not the wheel or button)! Thanks for any help!!

    Ok I'm not for sure but, some of the older cars were that you had to push it in and turn at the same time. Others I think you just pried on the side of the button and it came unsnapped. I'm guessing about these and oh you might want to disconnect the battery cable when you do it.

    Thanks to Banjo Pat!

     



    Pat, you done me good with that link to another site. I now believe I can get that stupid button and surround off so I can then get to the nut that holds the wheel. Or is that me...? Thanks to all. Problem solved.
