actually im doing modifactions on a Logitch G25. this is not my project but i am hoping to build a full H.U.D with progressive shift lights and rev counter like this.



then maybe mount it to a Momo mod27 like this


this is the stock g25 setup i have now, the control is great and dual motor and force feedack is pretty realistic, but the actual wheel is lacking in function, and the center ring that looks like anodized aluminum is actually cheap plastic. the rest of the bits are actually metal, the shift paddles especially have a nice mechanical feel.

yes its for sim racing.

so as to my orginal post, anyone with an EF who could measure the width of their emblems, the emblem i have now is 55x44 but i need it to be flat.

so far all the H emblems except the 92 civic hatch are too big to fit within the hub mounting holes, but the hatch emblem is really curved and i cracked it trying to flatten it out with a heat gun.

Use a hair dryer and take your time more. You got it too hot.

A rough estimate on the front emblem is 68mm x 55mm..
(she's wearing a bra right now..)
The emblem that went in the steering wheel in stock format is
around 45mm x 40mm..
