Replacing a 2-spoke steering wheel with a 3-spoke

Hi. Looking for advice/tips/gotchas/etc from someone who has done this before. No MSFW controls involved, but wondering about horn wiring, though.

Thanks!

Thanks! Still not clear whether you need a harness to wire up the horn. I'm hoping no.

My 3 spoke wheel had the horn harness already on it. I have had 2 of them and they both had the harness. Here is a pick of just the wheel and you can see the harness.

That is my understanding now - no harness required. Pretty much plug n play.
