Coil cover M badge replacement

Barryb97 · 07-19-2013, 12:28 AM

The M sticker on my engine cover is bubbling up. I ordered a new one but I'm not sure the best way to get the old one off. I did a search but found nothing. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has had to deal with this. Heat gun, solvent, sand paper?

I used a flat head screw driver to get it off, snapped in two bits during the progress, but worked well in the end. Just work carefully.

Can you share the part number for that logo? I've had a hard time finding one that I was confident would be the right size.

What Vanne said is how I did it. Use a soft cloth and a screwdriver. Be careful, or you will mar the edge of the plastic the badge sits in.

Yeah the badge is expendable, be carefull around the edges and take your time. Chicky is right : )

would these not come off like any other badge?
dental floss or fish line and cut through the bond tape underneath

You could try that. May be harder since it sits in a well.
