Steering wheel emblem

As far as I can remember there are metal tabs that are folded on the inside, but this involves messing with the air bag....big no no. The center from a Corvette is the same size and one guy on here somewhere just cut the tabs off and glued it over the bowtie....looked pretty good.

its only a no no if you dont know what your doin..if you do...disconnect battery..let sit for a while..look for holes on side of steering wheel for removing bag..it comes off easier than you think but yes tabs on the backside
just be carefull,your dealership guy will do it for ya next time your in for service..replace it the time after you go in..2 min job really

You can Polish it as some have done! Also there is vinyl bowties in most colors that fit right over the chevy gold bowtie! Check ebay..... :wink:

This may work:
