Toyota "T" Formed Aluminum Steering Wheel Airbag Emblem - Overlay VS Replacement

Hi Fellow 86'ers!

Sorry I needed to start a new thread. But, I need to take a poll and cannot add/edit a poll into my existing thread.

I am in comms with Loden about this possible future Toyota "T" Formed-Aluminum Epoxy-Cleared emblem badge for the Scion FR-S in this thread:
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=67840

I need to take a poll to see which would sell more and which is more desired:

1. An "Overlay" - same exact size as the current Loden "86" emblem, which is slightly bigger than the recess/hole in the airbag; BUT, otherwise fits perfectly over the oem Scion badge as it was designed and intended to be used..as an "Overlay."

2. A direct "Replacement" - this would be the exact same size as the oem Scion badge(and slightly smaller than the current Loden "86" "overlay" emblem), which will fit perfectly inside the recess/hole in the airbag; BUT requires you to remove the oem Scion badge.

Thanks

If it was my my choice, I'd pick the "Replacement"

...but, it's Loden's decision.

We'll see what happens.

Dont like the idea of emblem "pooching" out so I'd only go with a replacement.

Replacement FTW! I would prefer a genuine Toyota Emblem. The 86 emblem would suffice if that is what will be offered.

Is the emblem on the current airbag even replaceable? I've never taken it off but I assumed once off it could never be placed back on correctly. If that's not the case, replacement preferred. If you can't revert once done, I'd say overlay.

These are actually 3-D and coated as opposed to the flat printed one from the Prius. Much better quality but don't know if Loden can do these...and the cost may be prohibitive in a small run.

This one looks like it would have to have the "hole" in the airbag cleared out to sit down inside the space.

But I'd much rather have this one if it was available. Second choice the flat printed version.

I originally wanted these emblems for the outside of my car, but it doesn't come in the right size. I found them online (alibaba & ebay), but now I can't seem to find them there anymore?!

This is the only place I can find them.

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Toyot...583166971.html

Anyone wanna verify the size for fitment?
