Horn kit install???

[croftonaviation]

I just got my horn kit and I want to put it in tonight but I have a question. All I have on the steering wheel is a wire with a metal end crimped on it and a spring. I did not get a new metal end. Do I try to pry it off and re-use it or should I cut the wire Install the new guts and splice it back together? Just looking for some ideas here. Thanks.

The original horn button assy is one of the least mil-spec items on the truck IMHO and the new sealed version should easily be the kit of choice here.

Images attached, you'll have to decide how to proceed...

Get a new sealed horn button kit. Junk the original, insert the new wire down the column, plug the new wire into the wiring loom and a couple of screws on the steering wheel and forget the horn button problems.
