it sounds stupid but after hearing some of the guys on an board from the U.K, i'm under the impression that if you pull the badge off the steering wheel then the airbag goes bang! is it true?

The car looks nice with the Vauxhall grill.

As for the airbag, there are instructions on this german site (astra-g.de) on how to replace the badge on the steering wheel.

The link is down atm so keep checking it every now and then. Then stick the link in the Google translator and away you go. ;)

The logos on the wheel are plastic welded on from the inside. As the centre cover blows open on a hinge at the top I find it highly unlikely the bag would go off if you tried to remove the badge, however i wouldnt do it!
