Steering Wheel and Horn 72 Land Cruiser

LC's

I have a 72 Land Cruiser Soft Top, Manufactured in 10 / 71. The steering wheel I have from eBay is a 33 Spine, with the three button set up. The question I have, the horn contact just seems to not fit. This is the hyperlink I ordered the horn seat from.

I have the distinct feeling that the Steering Wheel I have is for an earlier model. Can anyone help to confirm that the 3-button steering wheel I have is not for this model year? Thanks.

The wheel with the horn contacts on the spokes was not offered until 9/72, which is technically the start of the '73 model year. 72 wheels are hard to find.

Thanks Mark for confirming my suspicions. I found a pre 10/71 wheel, with some cracks I'll need to repair. Should be OK as I have the horn seat and getting a button with it. Guess I'll ebay my 72+ wheel, it's in great shape.
