BMW M badge replacement, steering wheel:
BMW Mtech 2 steering wheels have an M badge located on the middle spoke. Over time this badge can crack, fade, scratch or just fall out. Luckily, BMW still makes the original badge and can be ordered online or at the dealer for around $20. Replacing this badge with a new factory replacement will bring back some vibrancy to your sport steering wheel.
The badge is pressed in place by two posts protruding from the rear of the badge. If your worn badge is still existing, take a non metallic pry tool or a metallic screw driver with the end taped and pry off the old badge. Installation of the new badge is done by simply pressing the new badge in place to where the posts are inserted in the existing post holes.

This emblem fits any E30, E36, E34, E32, E39, E39 and E81 model airbag steering wheels equipped with the M emblem. The listed BMW models are the OEM wheels that were available with this emblem from the factory. Many of the listed models have interchangeable wheels, such as E30 and E28.
