Rosewood wheel horn button question?
My search just ended and I mortgaged the house and purchased a beautiful GM 1969 rosewood wheel. As an added bonus it came with the GM hub and horn cap. The question is this: the attached photo is of the wheel installed on the car with the GM horncap it came with. But I noticed that it has a sharp edge and not the smooth rounded edge as the repro cap has (see next photo) Which is the right cap for a Feb built 1969 Camaro? Thanks

Re: Rosewood wheel horn button question?
The repro cap is correct.
The cap shown on the rosewood is from the '64-'66 2-spoke wood wheel. And before you bash the repro, OE GM caps were poorly designed. The rivets retaining the mounting ring were flimsy and easily broken.
