Default Volvo Badge (centre of steering wheel)

Hi anyone know if the Volvo emblem badge chrome and blue that fits in the centre of the standard V70 Gen 3 steering wheel can be replaced by it self without having to buy an airbag or the whole steering wheel? it looks so bare now the blue "Volvo" bit has come off and disintegrated (Lord knows how!)

I thank you.

Yes they are available from Dave Barton in the USA, his website is here http://www.davebarton.com I have just replaced the Volvo badge in the centre of my steering wheel and the one from Dave Barton is, IMO, better than the original one.

This is what I ordered:

VOLVO Steering Wheel Insert.
Volvo Dome Blue-Chrome Type 1 - 35 x 8mm $7.00
Qty: 1 at $7.00 ................................................ $7.00

Shipping cost was another $6 but at $13 total cheaper than a new steering wheel centre. As far as I am aware they are not available in the UK....... unless someone knows differently.

I agree ... bought this item from Dave ( what a helpful man ) ... perfect fit and probably is better than original ... now been in place on steering wheel for over 4 years and still looks new.

Came across Dave's page whilst looking for an emblem for my 2009 S80. Found the attached one with the Swedish flag which I thought was quite a decent change. Has anyone sourced similar from UK/EU? Postage from the US is rather hefty for what is essentially a tiny sticker.

Thanks

Have a look on Ebay.

Stickers are different sizes, so measure the existing first so you know what to order.
