Steering AMG logo

Is there a replacement to this plastic airbag logo? I've seen some pics with AMG in that place or can it be removed?

I ended up just getting the AMG door pins and decided to live with the steering wheel.

I found detailed directions here

I want to get the pins, but its either the rear or front (can't remember) that require full door panel disassembly

I just got the front ones through the dealer. just turn the old plastic lock pins to unscrew them and screw the new ones on. it takes seconds.

the rear ones though, some people say you can just muscle out the old one and then pop in the the new ones. but most say you can just remove the door card to put it on properly. I didn't bother with the rear ones because i never see them.

My coworker did it with his CLS63 and said it was easy and only took minutes to do.
