    so i ordered the vintage sports steering wheel from jegs. 15" looks amazing. the only thing i need to change is the mustang emblem in the horn button. any ideals? im not sure how to take it out. it seems to be all one piece unless it pops out the front.

    any suggestions?

    heres what it looks like

    I think you just push down and turn it and it will pop off in your hand.
    the price is pretty good for that nice of a steering wheel :thumbs2:

    Those stickers are the way to go, I still have some of the original ones made and have been saving them for steering wheels and center caps

    probably a stick on decal, try using a heat gun, or hair dryer on the back side of the button, should release then.
