Default What was this from??

I had one of these on my last Cabby and want one again, it was identical to this ebay one but had RS embossed on the centre cap and this was also the horn switch, and had a horn symbol below the RS.

I thought all MK3's had the horn on a stalk so i cant figure it out!?

Mk3 Escorts did have horn on the stalk - what yo usee on that wheel is just a rubber "cap" that hides the nut to hold it on the steering column....

Yeah i know that!
Thats my point..... the one i had did have the horn there but I thought those style of wheels where only fitted to the MK3's?!
I've not seen another one in that style with the horn, wanted to know what they were fitted to.

I have a 2000E wheel, same as the cossy one but has grey leather around the outside, looks good in a grey car. Deffo must have been a Cossy one you had.
