I wouldn't say it looks oem...in my opinion the badges look like you added them on. It does look nice though...makes people ask all the time..."What the hell is that?"

I had a dent in my 00 'H' and got Ricks steering wheel badge. At first I didn't like it, but even then it looked a heck of a lot better than the H with a dent in it!

Now I love it, it's settled itself in somehow and now looks like it should be there. I have had people ask me if my car was a special edition.

eww, stick with the 05 wheel. I personally dislike the 06 steering wheel the most, much rather have an ap1 wheel over that. but thats my opinion

It's difficult to remove the OEM badge without damaging it. It really can't be fixed properly. If the badge is damaged, the airbag needs to be replaced to get a new one.

I grinded/filed/sanded off the metal "H" and polished the badge, but I didn't remove it from the airbag.




You could always fill the dents and paint the badge. [A new airbag is a pricey item!]

well im going to the dealer today to see what they say about it. Hopefully they will replace it, i doubt it though. Maybe if i tell them it happened due to defect in material or workmanship under normal use?
