Steering wheel badge

So if your airbag deploys what happens to the new badge?

That's a good question. I think it would be like those faulty Takata air bags shooting shrapnel at the occupants.

I looked at the inside of the cover when I had it off. The cover looks like it is designed to split open in 5 or more "petals," like a flower. The badge is located on an oval petal that will flip up, in the direction of the roof. If my self-adhesive badge were to come off, I imagine it would hit the roof (if it was closed), or maybe the inside of the windshield. If it doesn't come off, I think it will just whack the top of the steering wheel. I can't say I am concerned about it.

You should disclose the self adhesive badge if you sell the car. No telling what it will hit at ~200 mph if the airbag deploys, it will be similar to the Takata failures. I like the badge, but not enough to have one permanently imbedded in my forehead. This is a little (maybe a lot) preachy but that's a really dangerous setup you have. Great if you are good with it, but the next owner should get to decide if they are good with it.

You are clearly not a dedicated Porsche owner
