On my '02, that little Ford emblem on the steering wheel started flaking off and it was driving me NUTS! (I can't be alone here, right? I am? Crap!).
But anyways, it took about 5 minutes (and $16) of careful prying with a pocket knife to replace this:
with this:
So if anyone else is in the same boat (or cares), now you know you can replace it without replacing the airbag
best fix I've done yet, or at least the one I'll look at most
if anyone's interested, here's the link for the replacement on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/BOWTIE-Explorer-STEERING-AIRBAG-EMBLEM/dp/B00JMKSPII?tag=959media-20
