If its anything like the older ones, then theres 2 rivets holding it on. Just drill em out.

Oh, so you're saying that theres no visible rivets to be drilled out? Hmm... Is there any way to access some sort of fastener from the back?

There has to be a way to remove it - after all, it was installed after the car was painted. My guess would be from behind, where the lock mechanism (and electric solenoid for remote opener) would be.

Oooooh, I need that crested emblem too, I don't want to step on Alky but if you two don't strike a deal let me know. Or if anyone else sees this thread and has one I would buy it. I also need a few other odds & ends if you have a parts car!!
