Are you serious? An aftermarket steering wheels couldn't be any more straight forward which is why they don't bother with instructions... But good to hear you figured it out in the end

The horn button goes on the outside, this will hold the black ring in place too so you won't need to add any adhesives to it. Those metal rings are adapters so that you can use a Momo style horn button.

Ummm...... there's not really much to know.
• Bolt hub to car.
• Bolt wheel to hub.
• Sit trim ring in place.
• Connect wire to horn button.
• Whack horn button into place.

You do realise that you will have to remove the horn button and clock spring in order to install the new wheel? :D

Notice wheel by the way
