horn problem

I thought of doing this swap before. I believe the problem you may run into, is that the 89 has a different ring around the outside of the column, between the column and the wheel. The 90 has a clock spring in front of that ring, between the column and the wheel. I think they may have made the offset different on the wheels because of that. Another problem is getting the covers to fit the column. They 87-89 covers are a lot different because of the tilt. You said something is missing behind your horn pad. What is it exactly, the clock spring maybe.

I hope this helps more than confuses, I wish I would have looked into that a little bit more.

I know there is no airbag on an 89. But there is some sort of metal ring, that a few teeth ride around. There is grease that sits on this plate. I picture would be worth 1000 words right now, its hard to explain over the internet. I think the teeth that ride around that wheel, is what grounds it out.
