Great information! I've been driving around without the left turn signal canceling for years and stumbled upon this video one day

[@1956Caddy]

I had been messing the all day with the order of reinstallation of all those parts with no satisfactory result (1960 Impala). Watched your vid and... voilà ! Everything work fine and, by the way, now, I know why ! Thank a lot !

gracias me sirvió de mucho el video

[@jairogarcia5513]

ok this is for cars that already had the horn button in the steering wheel or is it also for cars that have the button at the bottom?

[@14mtaylor]

Thanks that was super helpful. Congratulations on the title "Actor" LOL.

@Noe Corey Cool thank you for the reply. A year later but thanks. haha.

Is there a different size ring. I bought the kit for my 1965 Chevy impala oer steering wheel. And the ring is just a bit too big

[@rocknrod32]

What year column is this? I notice the horn cam (where the spring/contact pin inserts into the wheel)is shorter. I'm using a aftermarket '57 steering wheel.

[@ididitinc]

It is either our 55 or 57 Chevy Tri-Five tilt column with shift.

looking at an aftermarket 15 inch steering wheel for a 1957 Bel air will this video​ steps work on an aftermarket market steering wheel?

[@ididitinc]

Yes, the video is actually done with and aftermarket wheel and pertains to OEM as well.

Need help on how to remove a steering wheel from my 1946 Chevy truck. Removed the horn button but it has a cover that I can’t figure out how to remove to get to the steering nut. Help please!!!

57 chevy 150 holes the cap on the steering wheel

Why is there such a long wait (8 weeks) for an Ididit adapter for a 55 Chevy? Can't be that hard to make assuming you have at least one CNC machine.

[@JimNaeve]

It would be great if you referenced which kit this was so we can order it. I have this exact steering wheel and an Ididit column and have had a heck of a time getting it to work. I see that I need this kit but have a hard time telling which one it is on Summit or Jegs.

[@DaffysTrike]

Jim Naeve go to Eckler's Classic Chevy and PN 57-160378-1 there is about $40...ordering one now for my '55 Chevy....

[@ididitinc]

Jim Naeve The kit is our 1955-68 Horn Kit Part # 2612100040. Please give us a call at 517-424-0577 if you need help. Thanks!

[@mjminino]

will this kit work for a 66 C10 steering wheel?

[@ididitinc]

I would try the wheel without the trim ring and see how it fits first. At the very least you'll need to drill a hole in the hub of your wheel clocked at or very near 10:30 and use the horn plunger. We can accommodate the parts even if you don't need the trim ring.

[@playerpage]

@@ididitinc Do you have a kit that allows a classic splined horn to be attached to a 6 hole universal wheel mount? I want to be able to get my wheel on and off.

[@rocknrod32]

When I place the nut on (7/8 socket) after installing everything (and ensuring horn ring play), then the nut goes on - I get no play. What am I dong wrong?

[@davejewett3606]

Instead of saying in every video that this column is a direct fit, you should say up front that this column is bigger in diameter then the factory one and you will need a horn kit for a extra $100
