    One is contact when button pressed. The other wire is a ground. Have the ground stay in contact when you put it together. Press button should honk.

    Tito,

    Thanks for the reply. I was also interested in knowing why this button doesn't have a the clear shell over the crest part. Was the made this way or was the clear plastic cap removed? Thanks

    No offense taken. I just saw a similar horn button thread here a couple of days ago that got some good response. Thanks

    I'm no expert -- probably best if MaMo chimes in -- but I think it's a repro/off-brand, not a MoMo issue. Hence the cheap construction/lack of a clear cap. My 2¢.

    Looks like the one sold on ebay for about $15. I havent tried but the center might swap out for a MOMO center for the early chrome ring look.

    I believe this fits the highly sought after chinese reproduction NONO steering wheels. Just kidding, it just has repro written all over it. It may fit some aftermarket wheel.

    I have dissected the MOMO and the MAOMAO horn buttons and they are quite similar. I put the chrome ring in the MOMO button and it looks pretty good. Of course one of the tabs on the ring broke off [fine Chinese alloy]. By the way Ill have a few chrome ring MOMO buttons for sale at Hershey, HAHAHA Will this decrease the value of original chrome ring MOMO buttons? Will the price of MAOMAO buttons spike? Mark, we need guidance.
