Will 65 era mustang wheels fit 63 falcons factory columns?
Can he wire it like that and still use the 63 relay ? I;m sure it's just like the one in my 64 .I did this on brother Ed's car, you have to ground 1 of the 2 wires, the other still hooks to the relay. A horn switch is a GROUND based system, no 12V on it.... a 65 falcon HAS a horn relay, horn switches go to ground, causing the HOT side to feed the horn....

________________________________________________________________I am thinking this would require a newer column? and Since my system from column to horn is old. I am not sure i am tracking the mod (the why)..
If the steering wheel will be not electrically compatable with the column then I think none of that is important..
I switched to a horn ring from a horn button and basically unscrewed the bits and pieces from inside the button to put in the ring. And it worked. Maybe I can get lucky.
I think the problem is matching up the contacts on the mustang button with the falcon colun parts.. Or am I way off mark here? I am not sure I am tracking the addition of relay and stuff.
The 65 wheel will in fact fit the earlier falcons. the only problem is the earlier falcon uses a horn relay whereas the 65 wheel is designed for use without a horn relay. but all is not lost. Takes a simple jumper installed on the 65 wheel to make the horn work.I am thinking this would require a newer column? and Since my system from column to horn is old.
