Has anyone purchased the repopped Butterfly Steering Wheel for 1950, 51 & '52? Have you had any problems with the horn not working or working when it wasn't supposed to?

It is my understanding that the reproduction ones are a bit smaller in diameter than the original. Personally, I don't know that as a fact. Just something I've read or heard. Charlie  BTW: I had a 49 accessory steering wheel that I thought was proper for my 50. I put it on and took it right back off. To me, it did not complement the interior one bit. I wouldn't say it was ugly but I wouldn't date one. I have not tried a 50 accessory butterfly on it but I think they would look much better.

The 1950 wheels were 18" = the reproduction are 17"
For some reason the 1949 accessory whell was never in demand.
