Phoenix Club -- Sunday, 3/1/2020 - Part 15 -- Porsche steering wheel horn button (before & after cleaning the trim ring on top)





After cleaning






I had this leather horn pad cover from a previous purchase.  It's old and has shrunk so it's diameter is too small.  What I plan to do is to cut a larger piece of black leather to the correct diameter & glue the original leather cover on top of it then install it...

There may be a maker name on the back of the steering wheel behind the hub.  I've seen other similar wheels marked that way.  The similar one I remember was a "La Carrera" brand & made in France...




After cleaning


Temporarily put a wheel center cap in the middle...  just to see what it would look like.
