Default Steering Wheel Decal

Where is the best place to buy a steering wheel decal? I was considering vette essentials. Does anyone have one from them?
How does it look? Thanks.

I got mine on ebay along with the airbag cover letters and the door sill logos. They look great especially silver on a black interior. They're tricky to put on so take your time and clean the surfaces well. Use an Exacto knife with a pointed blade and a hair dryer. Moisten the surface area first to keep them from sticking while you position them with the Exacto, then use the dryer and press on with a Q-tip.

Clean the area well and then apply, pull from the corners at the tips of the flags. I put the steering wheel and sill decals on my MY coupe and they look sweet! Plus I think I picked 3-4 HP in the process
