Dental floss? remove excess 'sticky stuff' with something like Autoglym/Meguiars Tar remover ??

Been asked a few times and there are a few ways,

Fishing line/ dental floss to 'saw' the foam backing of the badge
Using a heat gun and pull them off
Hot water also.
Personally i just prised them off with a small flat screwdriver, then went over the area with somw polish etc etc.

I took everything off bar the cupra badge.

Cheers

Took my small badges off with some hot water and a flatblade screwdriver. Was easy to do. Then went over the area with some tar and glue remover followed by t-cut and a bit of wax.

Decided to take the MK2 Leon letters off a few days ago and used the same procedure. Again came off easy.

just got them morning how big r they supposed to be because they are no bigger then the ordinal lettering whats already on i thought they where suppose to be bigger

Yep they're bigger matey. Here's a pic when I had the badge on mine

Give Lee a ring at Premier Stoke on Monday (01782 745200). He will know which one you need as I gave him the part number as it was not on EKTA's database until recently.
I'll have a look later for the part number for you as well mate

Changed the badging on mine to the Mk 1 Cupra look i.e. LEON central and up-high back in 03. Here's the thread here though the pics have all been deleted now.
