I've had it like this with this post (the above from where the quote comes from*) and besides my previous comments to it - the subconscious mind couldn't let it pass and has been dealing with it for a while now..

*BOOM* today..

The horn button IS mentioned - of course it is! - it's Volvo!

There it is - #32 - Group 3 Electrics, page 17

Ahhh... Peace of mind now..

*And 1800necwinner - it's NOT aimed at you..
its all good i know what its like some stuff just niggles at you then the penny drops a few days later and dont worry i know you was not aiming it at me so all good

Ohh.. You didn't think that I don't know the difference between a standard 1957-67 steering wheel and the GT one, did you?

See, what you (and probably the writer of that article you quoted) failed to notice is, that the diagram is of the horn button - not the steering wheel - it's all Volvo-logic: Steering wheel belong in group 6, Front axle and Steering gear - whereas the horn button belongs in group 3, Electrics..

You can't win
