wheel airbag Porsche crest emblem

That ebay listing is sort of misleading.

The first picture shows a 3 spoke air bag with a recessed crest.

What is being sold is a crest that you stick on the 4 spoke air bag to cover the embossed crest. Some of our local owners have bought that type of crest for their 4 spoke.

I hate to bump an old thread, but I got a part number for this. It's 644.559.210.10. I emailed Automotion, and they sent me the part number, Pelican Parts says it's from the 356, and is listed as a mini crest for $32. The guy selling these on eBay is marking them up 50%.

According to my May 2009 parts list 644.559.210.10 does not exist but 644.559.210.00 is a 356 Porsche crest. About $47 US MSRP.

I hope none of you are putting this crest on your airbags.

Q. have you thought about what that crest is going to do when the airbag deploys??????????

A. if your lucky just leave a Porsche crest embossed on your forehead

if your not so lucky a Porsche crest lodged in a jugular or eye or heart, lung etc.........

you shouldn't be putting anything on any airbag!!!!!!!!!

I am fairly certain the airbag crest is not made out of metal, and as it's the name implies it was made to go on the airbag.

I understand your concern, I emailed automotion and they gave me the part number for the mini hood crest, which could very well be the crest they are selling as a 'genuine hood crest.' It is impossible to know for sure though.

I am not trying to be a smarta** but the crest that comes on the airbag is not a hood crest as the part number implies
