HOW TO: Horn Hookup and Turn Signal Auto Canceling on Aftermarket Wheel *NRG Setup*

ProdriveRex · 11-18-2006, 01:22 AM

Well I have looked around and information is all over scattered in pieces.
Everyone have their own way of doing Horn and Signal on Aftermarket Steering wheel and Hub.

This is In My Opinion is the easiest and SAFEST hookup of Horn and Auto Turn Signal Canceling on my 2005 STI.

Products Used:

1. NRG-F009 Steering Wheel
2. NRG SRK-250B Black QUICK RELEASE Kit Generation 2.5
3. NRG SRK-100H Short Hub

Here we go.

Horn Hookup:

All you need is 1 feet of 8 Gauge Wire and some zip ties.

You will find a Screw right under the steering column.
You will use that screw to hold the Red wire (brush) in place and also use couple Zip ties to set it in proper location.
When Hub is installed red wire have to be touching the Copper Ring in the back of the Hub.

You will connect GREEN/RED wire to your 8Gauge red wire that is touching the Hub. If in doubt test this green/red wire
by touching ground (metal steering column) - Your horn will signal with your ignition OFF.

Everything else is pretty straight forward. Here is some pictures.

Auto Turn Signal Canceling:

You Will REUSE the center insert of your Clock spring. You can take it out by prying off four tabs that holds whole Clock Spring together.

The Turn Canceling piece is little too large in diameter so you will have to wrap inside of the NRG hub with electrical tape.
Use about 10-15 full turns and check periodically how the Canceling piece fits. Once it fits snug I used a little bit of 3M trim adhesive glue
to make sure the piece stays in place and put some tape over it.

Take a note from the picture how it goes onto the hub.

Now Install your Hub, Quick Release and Wheel and ENJOY the Luxury of HORN and Auto Canceling Turn Signals. (and just forget about Cruise Control)

Very good writeup.

I spy 02-03 WRX seats in the STi

AbACUZ · 12-07-2006, 08:50 PM

daily driver without airbags :banghead:

ProdriveRex · 12-07-2006, 10:28 PM

I really dont care about airbags to be honest with you.

but i am sure you have many reasons why we have em.... I just dont care

ColesSTi · 12-07-2006, 10:43 PM

You need racing seats and two five point harness and and something to tie

them to then you will just have a different safety setup. I plan on asking for

a steering wheel setup for Christmas.

You think running 5 points without a cage is safer than not having airbags?!

dnaL0R · 12-07-2006, 11:11 PM

what is the green/red wire you are talking about that goes to the other end of the red 8 gauge wire? is it found inside the steering column? or did it come with your "package"

Its the Horn Wire. If that wire sees Ground your Horn will honk.

it goes into Clock spring.

ProdriveRex · 12-07-2006, 11:29 PM

And this is the update.

I ditched that weird shaped leather 009 wheel for 012 in Suede with red stiching. I couldnt get used to that weird shape. I guess I like my wheel Round.

ColesSTi · 12-08-2006, 12:41 AM

Petter, What part number is that wheel?

WgnWheel · 12-08-2006, 12:56 AM

That wheel is the st-012s (s for suede).

WRXDriftR · 12-08-2006, 01:15 AM

And you have to make sure they order the right one for ya. because part numbers for Black and Red stiching some how the same. I got one with black stiching but NRG was nice enough to send me replacement free of charge and included Prepaid postage to return the incorrect one.

ColesSTi · 12-08-2006, 02:10 AM

What made you get that wheel over the one with two buttons? I was thinking left for 2 stage boost controller right for the 3 hellas.

I just like my Horn to be in the middle. Plus I like to keep my hand on the place where the button is, sometimes when I drive. And I am sure I would accidentaly hit it. And what if you are turning and you need to use your Hellas, you might hit your boost button instead of Horn.

ColesSTi · 12-08-2006, 06:09 PM

It wouldn't be much higher boost just good enough to get threw some of my

gears to help the drive train. Good point though. On your old wheel you

touched on you had some trouble seeing your cluster is this wheel any

better? Reason I ask is, I have a auto meter dual cluster pods.

ProdriveRex · 12-08-2006, 06:29 PM

i can see cluster better with round wheel.

dnaL0R · 12-10-2006, 03:49 PM

ok im trying to put in my steering wheel in, but i can't make it work... better yet, i dont know wtf im doing... i got the steering wheel off half way, i just have too many harnesses thats holding the wheel in still [it's basically dangling off]... and also, whish piece is the clockspring or whatever... there are two black piece inside, one with the yellow sticker on it and another one right behind that... which one do i need to retain? or do i just get rid of all of them? can i just cut off all the harnesses? thnx in advance

njskatchmo · 12-10-2006, 04:31 PM

Stick the prodrive emblem in teh center or get a prodrive shift knob, it is very similar to whats there now and will match the knob, but looks good.

living4surf · 12-10-2006, 05:10 PM

great write up i will geting the same wheel as your first one soon

Counterfit · 12-10-2006, 11:44 PM

There must be some other place to mount the cruise control lever...
