Car Forum / MINI / September 2004Steering wheel horn push
This is probably a daft question but.... I'm building a Blitz kit car (utilising the Mini as a donor) and I would like to have a central horn push. The mini was a Mk3 so the horn was operated via a stalk. My question is : Presumably I would need apart from (obviously) a steering wheel with the centrally mounted button, some type of fixed wiper plate/adaptor to attach to non moving part of the steering column. As I said probably a daft question. I'd still appreciate an answer though. : ) >This is probably a daft question but....

I guess you could always use the steering column from the MK1, but then you would lose the windscreen wiper stalk (MK1's only had the indicator on the stalk). -- Howard Rose 1966 VW Beetle 1300 Deluxe 1962 Austin Mini Deluxe 1964 Austin Mini Super Deluxe http://www.howard81.co.uk/ (cars on website) I think (notice the word think) that you could use a mk1 column with later stalks and cowls with a little ingenuity. I have been thinking a lot about my options for the new pickup and have bought mk1,2,3,4 columns trying to figure out my best options. I have decided to use the mk1 but I had all of them out of the shed this morning and I remember thinking that the differences between the outer tubes were not that much.
