I bought an aftermarket steering wheel for my car and the center horn button emblem looks too nice and too oem to be only done aftermarket. The wheel company is a reputable one know for making oem replacement wheels for many different british cars. I went with the mazda logo and I was wondering if this particular mazda emblem or logo was ever factory on a particular mazda at any particular time.

Is this simply a one off by the company?

Too blurry to tell. Increase your lighting and/or ISO and shoot again please.

Here is the horn button with the logo. The first photo might have too much light and made the white background look grey.

Wow, that's pretty.

That's just the standard Mazda logo they've used since the late 80s. The crosshatched background is a design from the company that made it. Not much different than putting it on a pink background or something like that, just a whole lot more classy.

I agree with Adam, it is very nice. I like how the embossed lines run at the same diagonal as the "z" in Mazda.

I absolutely love the horn on my car now. I did not care for the plastic one nearly as much as the billet one and the plastic one is nice looking.
Here is the billet one for reference. Same center emblem.

Looks great Andy. And the touch of white in the logo echos the color of your car... perfect!

Thanks, hence why I wanted to figure out the logo so I can either buy an existing one or have Adam custom make me a keychain, nose emblem and possibly implement it in gauges.

We will see...
