I just purchased and restored a 240z steering wheel for my 75 280z. Over all it came it pretty nice. I'm having one issue though. The steering wheel did not come with a horn pad and I am trying to use my 280z horn pad I just got. I'm able to get everything mounted but the horn doesn't stop.

Its wierd because I know that no metal is touching but it still goes off. Even without the horn pad it goes off. Its like the screws are magically touching metal that I can't see. Think that if I just get new screws it would work? When I take all the screws out it works fine.

Here are some pics...

I did the same thing in my 78, except I didn't put the horn back together. Reason being, the mechanism to make everything work right, wasn't the same. and instead of forcing things together in ways they dont' want to, I decided to just pop the 280's horn pad onto the wheel and call it a day. One day I'll fix it, but that's not important right now for me
