Frequently Asked Questions

• Which steering wheels does this fit? It is made for the EMPI Banjo vintage wheels (79-4059-0 black rim and 79-4060-0 silver/grey rim) and fits most standard Banjo reproductions.
• Is this just the button? Yes — this is the horn button assembly only. If you are installing a new Banjo wheel on a factory column for the first time, you also need the correct Banjo-specific Boss Kit (79-4062 or 79-4063), as standard 3-bolt adapters will not work with this button or wheel.
• How does it attach? It uses a simple snap-in or bolt-on design depending on your specific hub.
