if thats the case i would send it back if not get yourself those clips that put wires together without having to splice and a small 10ohm resistor.

btw DYNO! whats up with some help

how did u get your emblem off your trunk? I want to black out mine, did u paint it yourself?

dynomite05

Lol, I still haven't been able to take one off yet without breaking it. I bought a couple spares on parts.com for $5 each. Yea I painted it myself with some plastic spray paint.

I like that way...its easy .

is breaking it really the only way? lol

dynomite05

It has been the only way I have been able to do it. The problem is you can't get a good grip on the middle of the star because of the circle around it. I have to break the circle to be able to pull out the star..lol

oh boy I see me riding around with a halve broken peace sign

dynomite05

lol, just make sure you buy a replacement before trying it. I ordered a couple just in case I change my mind.

NewShockerGuy

Not to bump a super old thread, because I was actually looking at emblems but since the license plate LEDS came up what is the bulb size that we need for our rear license plate housing?


I want to do the LEDS as well but make sure it has the resistors to prevent any errors..


Thanks,

i jus ordered the cf trunk inserts damn lol i was thinking would it be too much

///AMGSC

I have the CF inserts on my rear emblem and looks great...always get compliments on it. One word of advice, leave the emblem chrome it will make the CF stick out more especially at night when light hits the star.

///AMGSC

I used ebay for mine and all work with no errors

What adhesive are you guys using to put your emblem/letters back on?

Fatz

I've never done anything with the emblem; I use 3M double sided tape (it has a red backing/cover) for the letter/number badge. I believe it is essentially the same as what the OEM uses.

You DON'T want to use the white and green tape used for pictures, etc.

M-Rods

So use the tape and trim around the letter & numbers?

Fatz

You will need to trim the tape to fit within the pocket (between the edges). The tape is slightly thicker than the letters so when you press it on, the back of the letter is just barely off the surface of the car.

Cool thanks, sounds like next weekends project.
