Honda Accord Crosstour Steering Wheel Emblem Replacement

[@sarag1158]

I used to work with some Albanian electricians. All good guys! I just bought this car and I want to trick it out. Blacked out chrome. Thanks for the video!!!

[@AlbanianFix]

Oh that’s gonna look sick! Post a finished video of it...

In case the airbag inflates in an accident, could the pins on the back of the emblem puncture the airbag?

[@AlbanianFix]

Not a chance. First of all, this is just the outer shell of the airbag that, when triggered, it flaps up and over, away from you allowing for the actual airbag “balloon” to come out and inflate in matter of split milliseconds. So it takes the emblem with it when whipped around. Second, the pins are not pointy but rounded off at the end so even if there was a chance for it to touch it, it wouldn’t harm anything. But all this is just advice as a DIY’er, no professional talk, please research and build your opinion. :)

[@NathanThrower]

Yes, they can as they are poking into the airbag as he’s pressing it in.

Great job! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Bulgaria!

Thank you for watching Bulgaria!

pro tip: you can watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.

[@adenjordan3659]

@Callen Tyler yup, been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself :)

[@rontribble414]

Hi Gm is there a chance the emblem that has the pens in it the new one you put on can trigger the airbag to inflate just asking a question? Also great video Thank you for sharing. It was very helpful.

[@AlbanianFix]

I don't think the pins are long enough to trigger the airbag but you can always cut out the pins completely and then glue the emblem to the steering wheel.

[@yankodimitrov5246]

I got a new emblem but still debating if i should change it. The original seems like rubber yet the replacement is hard abs plastic...

[@AlbanianFix]

Yes, very true, the original is soft and is wrapped in and out the holes, something you cannot achieve anymore unless you buy a whole new airbag assembly. For me I think, this is still a good solution.

[@newlife45692]

@@AlbanianFix I agree.. the air bag assembly cost around 200 plus at ebay.. Fuck that

[@deborapowell8653]

why did you take the battery cable off? Please

[@DirectedFire]

So the airbag doesn’t deploy while you fix the emblem. Saves you from dying

[@AlbanianFix]

As @DirectedFire said, in case that the airbag might deploy.

[@compwiz101]

I see that the two "plugs" at the left and right side don't really have a hole to go into. Did they snug down properly, or did you have to make some changes?

[@AlbanianFix]

Yes… I did have shorten those long stems in the middle and I think I clipped the two plugs your mentioning off of it.

[@NickYack]

Do you think this is the same process for other Honda models like the Pilot?

[@AlbanianFix]

I would like to think so, yes.

[@DialissaGuerrier]

Great video! Where can you purchase this emblem?

[@sPeeDeeKris]

DialissaGuerrier it should be in the description

Ebay

[@freedompioneer4311]

Holy Gawd what a pain in the aS$!! Would repainting work maybe with some clear coat as well? Thanks for vid

[@AlbanianFix]

I don’t think so because the finish on the emblem has a very shiny metallic surface. No paint can come close to original and will look very tacky and cheap imo.

[@jasminereed6613]

I have a 2009 Honda accord I need a replacement emblem Amazon didn't have it

[@AlbanianFix]

I have it in the description, click on that link.

[@juliol.7490]

Hello did you find one I need the same. Thx

[@NathanThrower]

Those pins should be sonic welded flat from behind the airbag cover. Those pins do not secure themselves and they are stabbing directly into the airbag itself.

[@AlbanianFix]

True but that material is also very soft compared to what you can find on the web. This is only meant to be temporarily until you replace the whole airbag because to sonic weld the emblem you will have to completely take the airbag apart.

[@evanhamilton6741]

What year is this model? I have a 2007 that i need replaced and the steering wheel emblem holes look the same as mine

[@AlbanianFix]

This one is a 2010 Honda Crosstour

[@evanhamilton6741]

@@AlbanianFix damn. Any idea on where I could find one for my model? I’ve scoured the internet 😂

[@AlbanianFix]

@@evanhamilton6741 Take some measurements for this one, maybe this will fit you: ebay.us/4b1VAW

[@سياراتحسابسيارات]

How big is the logo?

[@AlbanianFix]

I never measured it. I just ordered them online and it came in the perfect size.

[@byraerthunberg1278]

I just watch vid on airbag right behind it so i am taking a pass on getting rid of my dingy H symbol.

[@ItsChepps]

what do you mean?

[@costalamb3065]

Or. You can replace the whole airbag unit. About $1,000.

[@dllemm]

1:00 dude there's an airbag behind and you're using a sharp object, then pushing hard plastic into it

[@AlbanianFix]

Yes, indeed... that’s why I first unplugged the negative terminal just in any case of an accident. As you can see, I was using the razor very carefully by first pulling the soft plastic out with pliers and then cutting out as much residue as I could. The little bits that were left (not hard plastic at all) more like rubber, I carefully pushed them down and away from the airbag since there’s room between the airbag and the leather but I guess you wouldn’t know...

[@Daniel-xq7ny]

Hi. Where did you buy that emblem? Thanks

Hello, it’s in the description Daniel.
