Here is a pic of my Grant steering wheel, i didnt hook up the horn or any wires either, i did have to put a couple washers between the spacer and the column to prevent it from rubbing.

I think you forgot to add the pic to your post. I do it all the time, would really like to see what the installs look like from the side if it matches up to the column in the car.
