I have removed the steering wheel badge to replace it with one I bought from ebay, after removing the badge and placing the new black one in the same place, you can just see the edges of the holes where the old badge came out of, you would only notice if you were looking hard but would annoy me a little. Has anyone who's changed the steering wheel badge got a better fitting one or is it how they are? Didn't want to glue it if there's a better one for it

Hmm, they should all be the same size... but someone who has done it will doubtless be able to comment.

I used one of the OE door cap badges not one taken from a wheel centre. This is exactly the same size as the original steering wheel badge and cost less than £4 from a LR dealer.

Incidentally for anyone contemplating changing the steering wheel badge, they are not available without purchasing the complete airbag assembly for a Supercharged vehicle. Gone - 2008 TDV8, Stornoway Grey, ebony, zabrano trim, TV, Tasmods, mudflaps.

I replaced mine the same way as rrsjo (OE door cap badge) and its fits like a glove!!!

Around £4 from stealer but it had to be ordered in  Java Black TDV6 HSE - Java Grandes Marques 1/18 - Ducati 749s

I shall ring the LR dealer and order one. I think the one I have is a copy, I held it against the wheel cap badge and it is slightly smaller. Did you use superglue to put it on or did it come with adhesive?
Thanks for your help guys

I bought some double sided sticky pads and used those. Get the heavy duty ones. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

A long shot but don't suppose you know the part number for the door badge in black and silver? It can be a long winded process explaining these things to parts departments!

Contact 'The Large One' he's a LR parts manager, he'll know what you're talking about. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

I just used a bit instant grab adhesive such as 'No nail'

Superglue just be careful not to get any on steering wheel  Java Black TDV6 HSE - Java Grandes Marques 1/18 - Ducati 749s
