Hi I’m new. I have a 15 Corolla and I’m trying to remove the steering wheel emblem and replace it with a new one

. I’ve tried prying on it with plastic trim tool but it’s not budging. Any tips?

Look at these two pics.

The emblem has little "legs" that go through the cover, and have been "melted" a bit to expand on the back side.

The best way to replace it is to remove the air bag from the cover.

You may be able to pry the emblem out, but you may also damage the cover.

I did find some new covers for about $40 online, too.

Good luck.

I would be concerned that it could damage or melt the plastic airbag cover. That being said it looks like it could need to be replaced to swap out the emblem so you could try it first and then swap the entire airbag cover if it did ruin it.
