Looks great!
Can you post a photo of how it looks in a Nardi (or 'Nardi-style') wheel?
Thanks.

Sorry I don't have a Nardi steering wheel on hand, and my current steering wheel has a large 9 bolt horn button.
At this time I ran out of the Nardi buttons, but the materials are on the way to have some more ready next week.
Right now I only have the large 9 bolt buttons, 3 available, and I have a couple button tops for Banjo to replace the original cover with the black Porsche Crest I made, pictures attached.
I will also list radio brackets with modern radio included, also pictured, I have three available.
PM if interested in any of this stuff.
Jaime.
Those look great, James. Going on my Christmas list.
Just be careful who and where you advertise to. The reason these buttons are no longer available in the aftermarket is because Porsche sued everyone who was making them previously.
But nice job regardless. They look very professional.
I know, they're not easy to advertise, craiglist and offerup work fine.
James, they look really nice.
A while back, I took the Nardi horn button that came with my wheel and modified it with a Momo center button/insert I got on ebay. It looks OK, and works fine.
But now that I've seen your button.........
They measure somewhere around 60mm, correct?
Yes, exterior diameter is 60mm, it is the stock Nardi housing.
Very nice work!

I’ll take one. I sent you a pm.
Me too! Me too!
I can make them with those, but where can I find the Beck badges?
Carey (@chines1) should be able to provide them.
Since I cannot selectively protect my trademarks without it causing a potential issue, I'll get with our PTO lawyers and have them draft (or make a recommendation for) a quick temporary license allowing you to produce a Beck horn button using our enameled crests such as you have done with the P* crest badges.
I assume you used a 356A hood handle crest for th above P* horn buttons? if so, our crest is the same size...
My wife's first comment, whispered in my ear, when we saw our Speedster for the first time: "There's no Porsche emblem on the steering wheel". lol. Problem solved. @James007 's buttons are top notch, and he's a great guy. Even on a waiting list we got ours in short order and couldn't be happier.
"Porsche emblem? Sorry Honey, that's another $390K."
Hi James, second batch ready? I’m in for one as soon as their available
I will start production tomorrow, should have 5 more ready to ship next Thursday 22nd
Here is mine installed. I had to get a new horn button retaining ring with a 55 mm opening. Now that I see the photo, it looks like I need to rotate it a little.

Looks really nice! You may need some polishing compound on those polished aluminum spokes, it will keep them fingerprint free.
Just ordered mine!
I got got around to installing the horn button I got from Jaime. It was very easy to replace the existing Nardi button that I had installed a Momo P emblem into.
I did have to add a ground wire, but that is due to the hub I'm using, not due to Jaime's button. The hole in the hub is too large, so I've installed some flexible plastic. The plastic prevents the button from grounding to the column. The wire bolts to the hub, competing the connection.
Pictures are 1. Wire and 6-32 bolt. 2. Installed wire. 3. Before. 4. After.
Thanks Jaime!
You’re welcome! Amazing how a few cm makes a difference! Nice!
Danny, are those shift lights along the top right of your tach?
Yes, sequential, they light up 1 at 5500, 1 + 2 at 6K, and all 3 at 6400, just before rev cut at 6500. A little overkill, but it's nice to see out of my peripheral vision while still paying attention to the road in front of me.
Megajolt has 4 user-controlled outputs, so I used three of them to directly operate the LEDs, they are way, way less than the 500 mA that the outputs can carry for current load. It's 4 wires, a common 12v feed and each output channel grounds when ON.

What a useful idea. I find it's sometimes difficult to closely watch the tach when booting along a tight winding road, but sequential lights would get your attention, even - as said - if just in your peripheral vision.
I like it!
Danny's car is chock full of thoughtful, functional details.
Thanks, Ed!
Nice! Well done Speedster!
Beautiful car!
James007,
I have a 9 bolt wheel, 82mm center hole. Is the photo on you 9/8/20 current for 9 bolt?
I would like the bolts to show around the edges and a price please
Then--how do I order>
