Springalex horn push

Anyone got a 60/70's Springalex with the plastic horn push? How does it fix onto the steering wheel?
Does something fit onto the screws holding the boss on that the horn push presses into?

Hi
No,nothing extra fits onto the screws.
The centre cap is only held on by pushing it over the 3 ' Cheese Head' set scews that hold the wheel to the boss.

Thanks guys
I did get a reply from Steve at Retro-UK who told me about pushing onto the boss screws.
Looks like I need some different screws that are big enough to fit the horn push. I can see why the horn pushes come apart from the steering wheels over time.
