Superbird Trunk Lid - Road Runner emblem

[oldchevelle541]

I would like to get new emblems and see from one that there are holes in the sheet metal behind the emblem and the emblem has studs. When inspecting underside of trunk lid there is no access holes for a speed nut to be tightened hence how to you attach. Is there a special tinnerman clip that you slip onto the stud that has a compression fit in the hole.

They are plastic grommets that go in the holes and then you push the emblems in. I just bought a bag of them, let me find the link..

Much appreciated......how are they performing ?   Do you feel they are secure and wont loosen from washing or shutting trunk, etc.

Thanks

I haven't used them yet, but they are supposed to be exact replacements to the originals. Look like them in person, just haven't tried them until I clean up the 26+ year old paint.

It is interesting that some sell the emblems with a tape or speed nuts if you have access. Never seen any emblems advertised with this kind of hardware. Thanks again - I will look into these items.

That's what's on my bird trunk and it's original.
