Help how to remove front emblem
#2
Lead Lap
@LeoGS350 The emblem is attached to the grille itself with clips. You will need to remove the grill to get to the clips at the rear (there are 2 clips/washers at the top of the emblem). Its easy to remove the emblem once you remove the grill and see the backside of the grill insert.
However, to remove the grill the right way, you will need to remove the front bumper...or you can leave the bumper on but keep in mind that the bottom part of the chrome grill surround has screws that will need to be removed for you to be able to remove just the grille w/emblem.
Here are some images I pulled off eBay to give you an idea.
Image 1, green arrows showing the emblem clips. Red circles showing where the chrome grille surround has holes for the screws that attach it to the bumper...I didn't realize these were there and ended up slightly cracking my grill surround at those points when I tried to pull it out.
Image 2: Holes where the emblem is fixed into the grill insert...

Once you take off the cover from the top. You just need a trim clip removal with a u shape and gently remove the clip. By wiggling it. But before you do that spray a little of DW40 first. You have enough room to wiggle it. Check the pics for the tools.
