Car is a 1975 and I am going back to the OEM steering wheel from a Momo. I bought a steering wheel listed for a 1975 car, but it didn't come with the horn pin. I see there are two types, long and short with each saying they fit a 1975 1.8 car. How do I know which is correct for the steering wheel I have?
Short. https://www.ebay.com/itm/284708651730?fits=...ABk9SR-zDgevVYQ Long. https://www.ebay.com/itm/284771763445?fits=...ABk9SR-zDgevVYQ   |

Early wheels 70-71 use a long horn pin. 914-6 uses a short pin since there is no plastic hub to space out the wheel. |
