Default Horn question

Has anyone hooked up their horn with an aftermarket hub (momo) on a DC?
I removed the srs unit to fit the hub, but my horn wont work, it wasnt as easy as on my old DA (no srs).

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

did you cut the clockspring wiring or remove it all together? your horn get its ground through there and if you got rid of it with your stock wheel you will have to run a wire directly from you horns ground wire(test cause one is the hot at all times) into your car and leave enuff slack so it can turn around your hub and wrap it around your horn buttons ground terminal and then pinch the wire inbetween the horn button and the metal on the wheel under where you screw the wheel on the hub, thats wht i did for someone and there horn worked.

I got fed up of trying to make mine work like i've seen in a few write-ups on honda-tech, so I just wired up a momentary push switch to the plug I disconnected the SRS unit from then to ground....works just as well.

i installed a nardi millenium steering wheel a couple months back. i was excited and installed the wheel and horn button but never bothered to deal with the horn. i searched on this topic b4 and found out the a metal ring that came with my HKB hub actually makes the connection for my horn to work, so i remove my nardi horn button and install the metal ring, problem is now my nardi horn button no longer fits on its niche, and even pushing on the ring doesnt make the horn go off. i dont know the acutal setup of the horn and how it works, i suppose that is my crutch.
if theres anything that you might know to help me out or any direction you can point me in i would appreciate it.
thanks in advance.
