Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • cheap source for vw airbag badges with pics

    hey guys

    in my budget resto of a neglected jetta i've been buying a lot from ebay china and aliexpress and now dhgate

    if you are after a replacement badge for whatever reason, these are pretty good, perfect fit, the finish is pretty good too, some very light scratching on the alloy surface which can be hand polished out if you care. but from looking my damaged original badge it has fine scratches in the alloy, it must be how they knock off the paint on the embossed part of the badge ?

    anyway heres the pics

    Great find mate, thanks. I've looked for one of these in the past with no luck. Definitely buying one!
    Any tips for removal / install?

      no probs dude, they're pretty damn close to original I wonder if they supply VW lol

      its a pain to remove you want to try and wriggle the tangs out but you gotta mangle it to get the old one out. take a look at the picture on dhgate of the bakc of the logo to see the little tangs that retain it. I had to get pliers to pull the remaining metal tangs out of the airbag cover, be sure you get the whole bit out or you wont be able to get the new logo in. I just wriggled back and forth.

      to install the new logo just push the whole thing in firmly with your thumbs and the little tangs will lock in I had to keep going around and around the logo with my thumbs to get it in.
