OK, it absolutely will not work if put together like the LMC catalog or the pic KEL posted in his other thread.

The first picture below is a '67 wheel that to the best of my knowledge has never been taken apart. The second picture is my original, unmolested '70 camper truck wheel. As you can see the plastic ring is inside the cup. The easiest way to install the parts is with the steering wheel off but is not really necessary if you are careful. It can be tough to get the studs on the plastic retainer through the holes in the metal disk because it wants to slide down. You may have to take a small screwdriver and push the metal disk up from the bottom after you have the screws snugged up to get it in place. When you have all of the parts installed and you push on the edge of the metal cup it should push down a little bit, it should not be solid. If it is solid or the horn honks when you hook the battery back up the studs are on the disk and not through it.
