removing centre horn assembly on '70 911T?

My horn is upside down!
(Porsche emblem upside down on horn/steering wheel)
Is it a major ordeal to remove and turn 180?
This is on the 911T (1970)
Many thanks
Ben

A picture of the wheel would be helpful.

If you have a stock wheel, the horn pad with the emblem should easily be removed by pushing in with your hands and turning counter-clockwise (caution, remove the horn relay first!) about 1/8th turn to release it. You should be able to reinstall the pad correctly after that, but if not, you may need to remove the wheel and reposition it 180 degrees.

Actually looking at your photo, the wheel looks to be mounted upside down. I have the exact same wheel on my 73 and the seam on the cover is at the bottom whereas yours is at the top. I don't know if the pad is reversible 180 degrees but the wheel definitely is.
