Default Horn Buttons.

Hello. I have a 39’ Deluxe steering wheel.
Do not have a Horn Button.
It’s going in our 36’ Coupe build.
I do not need the Rod , as we are not using a bottom of box switch.
Question is, do you know if a 36’ horn button will fit a 39’ wheel ?

To ANSWER your question. No a 36 will not fit your 39 wheel correctly.

I used the hole that the throttle rod went through for a small button that honks my horn, the stock setup was unreliable.

The 38 button will fit your wheel. If you are going to install a separate horn button and just want to fill the hole in the steering wheel you can use a 30-31 Model A hubcap. I did this years ago when I put a '39 banjo wheel on a '36 Ford.
