I don't know if you can remove the crest from the hornpad, but you can probably change hornpads.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1)Pelicanparts.com
2)AJ USA in San Diego, California
3) Ralph Boothe Designs--a search of his name here and on 993 board will provide his email and web site. He's a Southern Californian who sells Porsche badges, etc. Heard he is cheaper than others.
hope this helps
Hey am I the only one who considers the effect that would have as a projectile in your face upon an accident as it will detach wereas the stock one being affixed will not? I want one as well but I don't think it's worth doing it unsafely
There was a post a while back with a photo of the airbag when activated. The outside cover splits in two with one side (with the crest) going one way and the remainder of the cover going the other way. Based on this, it doesn't appear that the crest will "shoot" out towards you.
I don't plan on attaching one, but I doubt that it would detach when the air-bag inflated. If it's secured well (with glue I presume) it would stay attached to the air-bag cover. The crest wouldn't be applied over the seam where the cover splits, as that wouldn't be 'centered' on the wheel.
The reason I wouldn't want one is that I don't think there should be anything in the center of the wheel with that high of a contrast to draw the eye away from the road.
OK.........this is all news to me but......I'm getting that mounting the replacement one there,
is not a safe thing to do (assuming I found out how to mount it in the 1st place).
The badge
is
mounted on the cover for the exploding pillow.....possibly a
good place to launch a metal projectile if that was the goal
Is that thin OE gold badge on the wheel even metal?
The silver replacement badges definately are, and do have some weight.
If you mount a metal crest over your airbag, you may end up receiving the special option "
embossed crest on forehead
."
This is the crest in my 2000 Boxster S. You might just be able to order the hornpad and transplant to your 996!
that is because the crest is attached as I have been told by pierciing the leather and making sure it remians retained not simply glued, unless I am wrong that is the issue
Sean........I'm not sure we are all on the same page here....both of my cars have a plastic (or aluminum) badge right now..... just like yours, ONLY GOLD COLOR.
We are wanting to change it to silver.
The aftermarket silver product is metal.
I still have no idea how to remove one, attach other, or if that's a 'bright' thing to do
Gregg, you might try calling your dealer and seeing if they can order just the factory hornpad piece with silver crest. Maybe they've kept these things in stock. I don't know if you can remove the crest from the hornpad, but you can probably change hornpads.
My silver crest came with the car..the so-called "millennium crest." I thought all year 2000 cars received this silver crest, though apparently that's not the case.

Well Eli's post ealier in this thread has the link for Pelican's page on the small metal silver badges..........as mentioned, those are the metal ones, and I believe are the same as Booth's.
BTW.....these are a tad bigger than the recess on the wheel so apparently would go over all?......rather than be recessed like OEM?
