When the stock hub is in place on the back of the wheel the nuts for the front cap would no longer have sufficient space. I cant just rotate the cap as there are two rods that tie into it from the bottom curve of the new wheel. However, the inside piece that holds the horn button can rotate but that meant that I would have to drill new holes for the machine screws that came with the wheel. Here is a picture showing the plastic center piece rotated and used as a template to punch the new hole locations. There are two existing holes that I will reuse (they are for 2 screws from the back that won't be installed) and they were used to hold the "template" in place:

The front aluminum piece was then drilled for the new holes and the whole assembly was but together to check the fit. Here's the backside:

What do you know... It all lined up! I then used JB weld to attach the nuts to the wheel as there is no way to access these once the wheel is on the column. I also covered the screw heads with tape first so that there would be no JB weld on them:

And here's the assembled wheel:


And the shroud in place.

Now I just have to figure out how to wire up the horn.
