MoonlightVR6 10 Posted January 28, 2014 does anyone know how to get the rear badge on? I have been trying to get those 2 blue clips on for about 3 hours to no avail. Its really tricky to get your hand into the body of the car to position the clip, I can just about get it inline but its soo tricky to reach I have no force left to clip it on. Does anyone have a trick for this, or is there some sort of tool I need. I have tried all sorts! I suppose I could always superglue it but I'd rather use the proper clips...

diarmaid16 1 Posted January 28, 2014 Do you not just pust the 2 blue clips into the holes from outside and then just push the badge in? You don't need to go into the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sankysvr6 0 Posted January 28, 2014 Put the blue plugs on the pegs of the badge, and then push the badge home. There is no need to go in side the boot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 28, 2014 Haha I did the same years ago as above just push them from the outside Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoonlightVR6 10 Posted January 28, 2014 Please don't tell me I wasted my time and hacked my hand up trying to get it clipped on from inside the car and I just push it in from the outside of the car. I thought they clipped on from inside the boot, its a right ******* to get to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoonlightVR6 10 Posted January 28, 2014 So, putting the blue clip at the right angle in some needle nose pliers (so it aligns up with the prongs on the badge), taping it shut in the pliers so the clip doesn't fall out (into the bit I called the black hole, where you needed to make a coathanger tool to get the clip back out after any previous failed attempts - its there, look and you will see ;-) ), getting it inline with the prongs inside of the body of the boot using only index and middle fingers while not cutting them of course, align with hole and push against the out side of the car, while pushing the badge on with your knee! Isn't the proper way it should be done? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoonlightVR6 10 Posted January 29, 2014 Sure enough it clipped in from the outside of the car! Attached within about 25 seconds!!! I cant believe I was soo dumb!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA I just looked at it and thought, oh so the prongs go through those holes and the clips must clip onto the prongs on the other side of the boot...
