side and rear emblems
I'm sure this has been posted before, but I'm having trouble finding what I'm looking for with the search function..
I bought new emblems for hood sides and the rear bumper. My car is a 1991. the emblems have 2 posts on the back but did not come with any hardware, just double sided foam tape cut to the shape of the emblems. What is the purpose of the two posts? Is there hardware to attach them from behind if I drill holes in the hood? Is the adhesive sufficient so that I don't have to drill holes in the hood? (just cut the posts off?) Can someone post or send me a photo of a later year car showing the inside of the hood where these attach? And how about the rear emblem - any tips for removing the old one to install the new one? Thanks! Mike |

Re: side and rear emblems
There is no hardware that attaches from the back. Holes are on the sides of the hood and on the bumper as mounting guide.
I?ll try to remember to take a pic and post. |

Re: side and rear emblems
Whatever you do, do not drill holes in your car for the posts. Just cut off the posts and the 3M double stick tape is plenty strong to hold them on. There are specific measurements in the factory service manual or otherwise can be posted and shared for placement.

Re: side and rear emblems
Perfect thanks guys. I will use measurements I found in another thread and use painters tape to make a guide edge. Glad to hear I do not need to drill.

Or skinny weed whacker line.
The early Z's only had the rear bumper emblem. The side hood emblems didn't come along until later. As stated just trim off the nubs and mount

Re: side and rear emblems
Pics of 1994 ZR-1 side emblems on the inside as promissed.
Note that I defeated double sided tape and used philps head screws and resulting flaring of the plastic posts (actually hollow inside) to secure the emblems. This way, I can periodically remove the emblems for cleaning and waxing the hood. I did the same with the front and rear emblems which are attached with 10 mm speed nuts. https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...oRQia6iJCm.JPG |
