Thanks to all for how to replace emblems which I just did in about a hour. The SC door emblem will fit perfectly on steering wheel. I did drill small hole in center of existing tin badge ,then pulled with pliers. But then I used an exacto knife and very carefully trimmed down rubber. Then cut off tabs by using razor knife over flame. I then sanded back of badge very lightly and epoxyed in. Perfect! mike murphy

Could there be an airbag/ safety reason why the steering wheel one has prongs on it and isn't stuck on like the others...... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Hi Tim, I don't think its an air bag saftey issue. I went very slowly as I could see where you could go thru the
rubber horn pad material. I just went deep enough so the badge would fit in tightly as the green one. Was not sure why RR designed the door badge the way they did with the cup and phillips screw. Could have just snapped in with the prong on each end. Came out great though! mike murphy

Thumbs Up

Being the consumate fanatic, if anyone is changing from the HSE badges to the SC here is another tip. If you are changing the front/rear emblems and the door emblems you may also want to change the badge on the horn pad
The emblem on the SC wheel cap is identical to the SC horn badge(metal) except without the 4 prongs. Use a hairdryer on the wheel cap badge and it prys right off, then follow previous tips on removing horn badge and epoxy the SC badge in place. mike murphy
