Hi all,

Looking for some advice on how to remove the badge inserts on bonnet & wheel centre badges (H120).

I have some new inserts to replace the old faded ones but from what i can see it looks like the only way to get the old ones out is by destroying them?

Cheers.

The bonnet badge insert is glued in - but they don't usually put up much of a struggle. Mine came out in one piece using a screwdriver. The previous owner of my '68 had his bonnet badge stolen on a car ferry - so his must have been easy to remove too!

Don't know about the wheel inserts - never had any.

Mine are well and truly stuck, but I've been given a tip at work. Heat them gently in the oven to release the glue, or heat them not so gently to melt the plastic inserts.
