Triumph Steering Wheel Logo

RSMTR8

Hello,

I am looking for the steering wheel logo for my 1980 TR8. The original part # is ULC-3153. Any suggestions? I have looked every where. Thanks!

The item in the ebay listing does not fit the Tr8 steering wheel, I bought one and it's nothing like the original, biggest thing is it's too big, will not fit into the hole.
my wheel has one, car was built Aug/80, lots of discussion previously of which cars had these and whether they were just installed randomly.
The item on Ebay is nice and worth the money, (haven't found a use for it yet although 4 might be nice for after market wheel centre centre caps) but no good for a North American TR8 steering wheel.
The following is from https://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/tr7/images/66.gif
Centre Badge ('Triumph') - ULC3153
UK Vehicles from VIN402001.
The associated parts diagram clears up any confusion.

The part number you're looking for is ULC2999. They too show up on EBay, but infrequently. As far as I know, they are NLA from the major vendors. You might check with Brad at Wedgeparts and see if he has a used one.
 
Let me know if you find one, I've been looking for a while with no luck.
 
No luck yet...............I will let you know.........
 
Found the steering wheel logo at the Little British Car Company. They were at the British Bash in Louisville a few weeks ago,and I couldnt beleive my eyes, they had them there for sale! Cost me $4.

Is it just the logo, or the whole plastic center part? Could use a new one myself....
 
Just the logo............not the center cap.
