Acura Emblem on steering wheel(ATTN: Bitium)

Bitium, I saw pics of your 99TL when you were showing the carbon fiber. I was wondering where you got the emblem that you attached over the imprint of the acura symbol on your steering wheel. I seen some Acura emblem before that were white-red-blue-yellow. But yours just seems different. Also I tried those emblem before and they were too big to fit in the imprint....so just wondering. Thxs.

Just pop up the hood. A emblem on engine plate will fit on steering airbag.

I actually wanted a soft emblem like they have on the newer Acura/Hondas on my 99TL. I have some color Acura Emblems that are hardplastic and I'm not going to put that on my steering wheel. So I was wondering if Bitiums had those or the (soft sticker)......umm any one know where I can get Acura stickers?lol ok forget it, I give up on this idea.....just going to go buy a new Acura Steering wheel (JK)

Be careful with this...the newer TL's have the emblem but were specially designed for when they deploy, the emblem does not go near your face. We had a discussion over this a while back...bad idea to put it on aftermarket...IMO

I seen air bags deploy on 99TLs (emblem isn't in the way). How is the newer TL's different from that???? Anyone got any pics on deployment of newer TL airbags?

I agree. The emblem on the 99 TL is in the same place as the 02+. I happen to have the emblem on my 99 TL and it looks great.

Your right, they do deploy the same. But that logo is attached a very special way on the 02-03 TL. On the 99-01, what are you going to use? super glue? use lots! I wanted to do this a while ago... I dont like airbags in general, i would turn it off if i could. But as long as its on, no objects for me

I'll post the pic up tomorrow. I got the emblem from Bigman but I don't think he has any more. It is pretty much just a sticker so it is not going to kill you even if it comes off.

I put the one from the hood on my steering wheel, then I got in an accident where the airbags deployed. i was lucky enough not to catch it in the face. when i looked in the car later i found that when the airbag came out, it shattered the emblem into 4 pieces. Soo im not sure if im going to put it on again, it was pretty scary.

Where did you get them from? How many people do you need or how many must be purchased? I'll take one, or more if need be.

Imagine that "A" flies toward you and hit you after the airbag deployed...I'm sure it will leave a nice, permanent imprint on your forehead -> Forever Acura loyal...hahaha.

LMAO... Oh man... I could get hurt by that sticker!!! lol
I would be more worried about the accident that caused the airbag to deploy rather than the "sticker" that can't hurt you... lol
