[T3] Steering Wheel Center Cover...

[Ralph Tree]

Excuse my ignorance, but I've never seen one of these horn systems in place. When i tighten the screws down there is no spring action. The wheel and horn ring just tighten down firmly. Is there a spring in there somewhere other than on the small screws?
Thanks
