Title: Front VW Badge
Post by: nads1_uk on May 19, 2009, 08:19:35 am

Does anyone know how to remove the VW badge on the front grill, someone has tried to nick mine and has damaged it and I want to get a replacement?

Mine comes off pretty easily.

Just rotate it anti-clockwise. It should rotate about 1 inch, then pull outwards and upwards. Mine comes off no problems.  :happy2:

If someone has tried to nick the one you have I'd take the front grill off (easy job 4 x screws) and make sure you pull the tabs over the splines when you fit the new one as this will make it a lot more difficult to steal!  :happy2:

I've gone one step further than bending the clips. If anyone ever wants mine they will have to take the entire front centre section :laugh: I do have a spare one though, with an original chrome badge 8)
