Lol....wings and badges are OK.
I was talking about the license plate frame. The "GENESIS" lettering, it's gone

Ha ha...thanks for clearing that up, bro.
I was like, duh...wth was he talking about?
He must have eaten too much sushi again, LOL.
Besides what would you expect?
It's free and came from Hyundai = cheap.

Planning on taking it into space?

[dareckibmw]

Thanks! and I hope it is easy to do that - otherwise I'll be fu**ed we'll see tomorrow afternoon

Yeah, I'll put it on ebay and I should post it here as well.

I sold mine for $150 - effectively making my wing airbag only $95!

Put together a quick DIY while at it?

DIY already exist here on the forum


I'm close to the dealer right now, I might stop by and let them do it. I am very busy today, but I'll definitely post pictures

Oh, I'm planing to take the "GENESIS" badge off and see how it look. It's crooked anyway

 

[dareckibmw]

I guess, I'll be doing it by myself pretty soon.... stand by

 

[dareckibmw]

Alright....done! (here's the easy way out: Genesis Steering Wheel Emblem in 3D - Genesis Owners)

I'll just copy/paste already existing tutorial and add my own pics.

1. Disconnect the battery. I had to put a ball of paper towels under the (-) terminal because there was no slack for it to stay away from the battery.

2. Unscrew the two (star) screws on either side of the steering wheel.

3. Pull SRS towards you and look behind to see whats going on.

4. Disconnect the ground and the 2 black and red plugs. This is where using a very small flat head will come in handy. You need to pop the yellow clips upward to release the plugs.

5. Now the SRS is completely disconnected.

6. Now follow all the steps in reverse to put the new winged badge SRS airbag on and enjoy.


*Please remember that you are doing this at your own risk. I am not responsible for anyone or any product you purchase. Also keep in mind that this was how I installed my SRS airbag. You may choose to do so differently.

 

[dareckibmw]

And partially debadged, no more crooked looking "GENESIS".

I think I'll leave it like this.

Take that pic and Photoshop out the Rspec & 5.0 and take another look at it. I think it would look better with just the wing. Just my opinion... Thank You for the step by step post on the steering wheel airbag replacement.

 

[dareckibmw]

I already did that few days ago in my other thread

 

[videopho]

Awesome look and best illustrated pics as always.
Now I know where to look when it's time to do mine.
Thanks much bro.

 

[dareckibmw]

No problem

Oh wait....I thought you already changed yours? the sig says "(Trunk, Hood, Steering Wheel)" ....I was wrong

 

[videopho]

Ha ha...My steering wheel?
It's a cheap $15 stick on job.
Besides $245 is not a chump change so it needs to wait.
Otherwise I need to throw this bone at you guys.
Figure out how to de-badge the remote key fob.
