The RimBlow was all around the inner edge of my '69 - but it no longer worked. Someone before me had rigged a horn button in the center of the steering wheel.

Being young at the time, I pulled the factory wheel off and replaced it with this insane little 10 or 11 inch-diameter chrome wheel. Had to put the factory wheel back on every time I got the car inspected.

There's a place in Arizona called 'The Rimblow Buddy' that may be able to help you out. My '73 vert had one and it worked wherever you pressed on it (if you did it hard enough).
