Default Keeping Horn and Cruise Function on Momo Steering Wheel

Hey what's up? I'm looking at eventually buying this really cool Momo steering wheel (see attachment below).

It's called the Millenium Evo steering wheel. It has a button for the horn, which I would like to keep, but for my car, a 97 Accord, this site, http://www.racinglab.com/momo-hub-44.html, says that by installing the steering wheel and hub, I will lose the airbag and the horn and cruise control functions. I don't care about the airbag, and I'd like to keep the cruise control if possible, but I definitely want the horn. Is there any way to keep the horn functionality, even if I have to rig something? Also, is there a way to keep the cruise control too? I would appreciate all your help. Thanks.

Unfortunately no...aftermarket steering wheels are built for performance...you lose all luxury aspect. (airbag, cruise control, volume control)

Yeah I know that. But the main question is... will I get to keep my horn since the steering wheel clearly has a button for the horn even though the site I posted says that horn functionality might be gone?

you could prob wire up your stock horn, if not just get a aftermarket one, but i wouldnt mount the button on the wheel cause it would kinda ruin it.

Okay, I don't have to mount a horn button. The wheel has a horn button built into it already. See http://www.shopmomo.com/momievostwh.html for more details. As for the aftermarket horn, if I cannot get my stock horn to wire up, then what would you recommend for a good aftermarket horn, and how would I install it?

You can wire the stock horn to work. It's just 1 wire.

I don't see any reason why you couldn't wire your stock horn to work. I would think you could move your stock cruise controls to the dash somewhere and re-wire them there to retain cruise function. Airbag is gone for sure.
