Has anyone changed their hood/trunk emblems from the standard Kia badge?
The only thing I’ve done was change the center piece on my GT1 rims to the “E”

Welcome aboard, @StingerGirl504! Thank you for signing up. Yes, many people are changing their badges. Here are a few options:

- Right here I sell a few. Click here.
- Our vendor K8 Stinger Store sells a different version. Click here.

We both ship same day. I'm sure others will chime in... Which Stinger did you get?

Anyone nows how to change the steering- weel logo for the E badge?

Welcome aboard, @Bruno! Thank you for signing up! I believe @K8 Stinger Store has an option for the steering wheel. Let's see what they say...

Now the process itself - I'm not sure of. Maybe somebody can chime in...

We have a steering badge on the "to-do" list--probably the E logo and also one with the Stinger text/logo too. I'm not quite sure if people would prefer to have an overlay that just sticks right on top of the Kia emblem on the steering wheel or a badge that's a replacement instead. Replacements generally look better and are higher quality, but some people may be hesitant to remove the Kia logo on the steering wheel.

OEM steering wheel logos are generally held on by plastic rivets from underneath. It's very easy to pop the logo off if you can slip a small flathead screwdriver underneath. The alternative is taking off the steering wheel and disassembling the whole airbag module to get at the backside of the wheel face.

Have you been able to find the E logo for the steering wheel? I've only seen it described as being for the hood/trunk so far. No luck with anything specifically saying steering wheel although I have seen the K logo and GT logo for it.

I believe the only way to get the E on your steering wheel would be to get the KDM airbag module. Only problem with that is it can't be shipped via postal services from Korea because it's considered an explosive device. There may be a way to get it here, but I'd have to look into it. Put inside a bulk ocean freight shipment maybe? Either way, it would be a couple hundred bucks to buy one of the modules.

Where have you seen the K and GT logo steering badges btw? I've yet to come across any.
