Default Source for the Crest that goes in the 968CS / 930 steering wheel?

Decided to change from the Momo and ordered a 968CS steering wheel from Sunset. They did not have the small metal crest that goes in the center. Who carries these?

Be sure to post pics of the wheel. I'm thinking about getting one.

From my knowledge they all had embossed crests, not a enamel emblem. At least mine doesn't, nor the many others I've seen in genuine CS's in the UK or the ones people have installed here.

My genuine CS wheel has an embossed crest also.

Original or not, the embossed crest really tops off the wheel.

I bought one from this eBay vendor

It's a nice piece, the price was right and delivery was quick as I recall.

Default aren't there other options?

I thought I'd seen someone with a plain silver crest on their steering wheel? Or am I confusing his with a hood crest?

Did it measure 4 Cm X 3 Cm and have a post on the back? If so,

I think I already have one... CROSS FINGERS as I am off to rummage in the bin "o" parts.

I bought my 930S wheel complete with the badge from AJ USA. Are they not selling them anymore?

Well crap ! ! ! I know I have / had one. I couldn't find is so I ordered it along with the little spacer. Watch it will turn up the day after the package from pelican arrives.

As far as AJ USA they don't have the crest and Sunset turned out to be cheaper by quite a bit. I know AJ USA used to be less expensive but alas, NO longer.

How much does Sunset sell the wheel for? Does it come with a hub adapter?

I've slapped on a full-sided hood crest (but gold one, not silver) -- it also has the right contour. You just need to dremel and get some epoxy. It looks ridiculously large, however....

$381.19 with the hub but with out the crest. This if for the 968CS wheel. If ya need a crest Pelican has em for $47.00. Ask me how I know.

What did anyone use to glue the Crest on?

Oh Yeah the hood crest on the horn pad is HUGE ! ! !

P.S. Sunset threw in a Porsche calender that is GORGEOUS ! ! !
