Anyone fitted the more up to date horn push from Griff Chim etc?

I have brought one but on removing the original there are 2 wires presumably + & - but in true TVR style both Red! The later one only has 1 connector but has a metal spring clip on the side. Before I start messing about with my multi meter anyone suggest a quick fix?

Cheers
Andy

My 400 has a working horn button. The 350i is a dummy. although there is a switch there.

I have never looked to see how it's wired up though. Theoretically you could use the original switch with just one wire, assuming you connected the column to the correct side of the supply.

Fitted today, I had to crimp a spade connector to the spring clip, this allowed me to keep the wiring original. Works a treat and has improved the look of the steering wheel.
