Simple modification I thought of trying. I never liked the MOMO center horn button on my wheel and I was looking for other options. I kept thinking of Fuchs wheel caps but I could never find a Three prong old style center cap (With no holes) in good condition. I found one last week!
To do this all you have to do is grind off the three mounting tabs on the back of the center cap and fit using a 2 part epoxy a slightly modified (grind the edge of the button down 1/8") MOMO horn button. Ben Attached image(s) |

That is a cool mod!
Love your gauges too. Mine are going to look like that as soon as I get my butt in gear and make it that far down the "to-do" list. |

Yes, looks much better than the previous button.
A second to the gauges as well, does your engine REALLY rev to 10k? LOL |

Re. the 10K tach -- obviously most engines will not rev that high or even much over 8K but my rev limiter is set at 7800 and I figure it will be easier to see that range of the gauge and also possibly more accurate with a 10K layout than on an 8K layout. This is all TBD of course as now I still have an 8K tach...
