    Yes, but it's a badge correct? So could take off our stock badge and just use 3m tape on the back and install it?

    i dont think it would sit flush and look seamless. I suppose you could do it, but i think it would look alot like an auto zone add on. also the thickness of it is not listed. whos to say that its not an half inch thick?

    So why did you even ask the question? He offers an answer and you argue that it can be done, if you already know then don't ask!

    Perhaps i misread, or perhaps by the edit of 4 minutes ago you did finally ask if someone had done this and tried to cover it up. Either way sir, I have no interest in this, but was trying to help and possibly save you some money by making a mistake. by all means, put all the autozone stick on chrome on your truck you'd like, at the end of the day its yours and not mine. that being said, its comments like this that take away from the greatness that is TW. Good luck with that.

    Thanks man. Some are special.

    That is a circle shaped badge. Our steering wheels have oval shaped (like normal Toyota badge) badges.

    I have this TRD one that fits, but the one you're talking about won't fit right in the area for a badge. Also, you won't go far on this site being a dick...

    If you are talking about this............

    [​IMG]

    ...that isn't just a stick on emblem. That is a horn assembly and pushes into hole in steering wheel and is probably a coupla inches thick. Just like the horn on many aftermarket wheels like Grant. I would try and find the oval emblem like was posted above.

    I changed out my emblem.......from this..........



    to this...........

    Yeah that steering wheel is for the '98 Supra and costs over a grand online. The corolla steering wheel apparently is a direct plug and play but the airbag doesn't work. I ordered the oval TRD badge like above

    Yeah, they actually had it on the '05 Xrunner at Sema I found out and they have 3 models of it but I couldn't figure out which one was direct plug and play. Apparently no one has though it worth it to take the plunge and buy one
