    hey guys, on my '91 how do I remove the horn button in the stock 2 spoke black steering wheel? I have a chrome/wood 18" wheel coming for it.


    Also, how much horsepower will I gain with the new chrome steering wheel ?

    Lol. Let me rephrase... How do I remove it without wrecking it. Push and turn or pop it straight off?

    Stickers eh? Like bullet hole ones? How about chrome balls hanging off the back?

    I'll pop it out with a screwdriver . The dynamite might damage my new Chinese non dot mega watt super bright led light bar I mounted overhead on my visor.
