The only Banjo wheel I'd use on my VWs would be Petri. VDM made banjo's for early 356 cars, and they'll fit too, but only if you're too cheap to buy Petri.
Horn buttons are the same. Petri.
Anything made by Petri will have their distinct logo cast right into the part so you know it's authentic. The logo looks like a Pre 55 batwing full-circle horn ring

i would do a search about that banjo steering wheel. i have seen a lot of negative things posted about the ones sold by flat4. as far as prices on petri rings, i have turned down $1500. for my nos one on a restored wheel by koch's petri horn buttons are creature of their own as well. it depends on what you are willing to spend.there was a nice zodiac/st.christophers horn button on the sight two weeks ago that sold for $650.00  |

This one's mine, came off a 356 and has the same spline as an early Split/Oval

I have a similar wheel that I intend to use on my 54' but mine is from a mid-50's BMW. The difference is that mine has the turn signal incorporated into a second lower horn ring and light that let you know which signal is on.
It also has a third blue light in the middle above the horn button that I think is a high beam indicator. |

Yeah, no offence but everyone seems to have that (Petri Pealit) particular one. Anyone wish to make me an offer, I am considering listing/selling mine on E5ay soon.
Cheers,
