Google Maps Icon Change

When you type in "Maps" The icon shows the default google icon.

Maps would look much better using the actual google maps icon

At first I was going to suggest perhaps going 'into' the alfred2.app and replacing the icon, but apparently there is just ONE google icon and it's used for both. So, an alternate suggestion, make a custom MAPS search, and use the icon of your choice, disabling the built-in maps search.

 

I will thumbs up this post because I also think the built-in maps search should use the Google Maps icon instead of the Google Search icon.

Good Idea Rodger, 

 

I tried modifying David Ferguson's google search plugin

I was able to get the google maps icon for the initial 'maps' search, However the results are hard coded to use the built in google icon. 

 

Looks like an Alfred Developer will have to make this change.

Well, what I meant was actually make a new custom search. With those, you can specify any icon you want.
