type r steering wheel h, look at this video

if you look at about 10 seconds into the video you can see some sort of light reflection off of the red H, it looks like the real deal not those crappy stickers you put in between the H,http://youtube.com/watch?v=056akk4Mx80

No it isn't a crappy sticker....lol. But it isn't the real type-R wheel setup. I thought about doing the whole Red H thing on my car and ended up ordering from passwordjdm a while back.

Being a freggin noob I clicked the wrong thing and not only ordered a very small version of the H's that go on our car, it was only a single. Argh....so instead of returning my $40 or so dollar purchase and telling them sorry for being a retard, I noticed it fit right over our wheel's center H.

You can't tell from the video, but it doesn't fit inside of the section of the wheel that is set in. It sits on top of it as the adhesive sticks to the outer rim and grabs the outside of it as well as the chrome (or chromelike) of the original H. I thought it would fall off because it was only contacting the surface at the rim and the old "H", but after the adhesive "settled" it was in there pretty good. In fact now, I wipe down my wheel and that thing won't move...its in there for good unless I recruit goo-gone.

Since then, I never really re-ordered the Red H's for the outside since I am liking the car as is.

There you go....that's the story. Oh yeah...I think it was the ep3 one? I've read posts where people have made that mistake....lol.
