Crossover front badge loose

Mark6455 · Apr 8, 2011

My front badge is loose looking at it there doesn't seem to be any nuts on the back end as I can actualy pull it off
Can I get to the fixing bolts from behind the kick plates to put new nuts on or is there another way of getting to them?
Just don't want to lose my badge as it's the original

Thanks dudes and dudets

On a 72 bus the badge is just held in by the 4 rubber/plastic bungs, there are not bolts or nuts on them. do you have the bungs in place, if so it might be worth getting some new ones from status/C&C/Heritage

Hi Graham the badge has threaded pins on it?
Do the bungs go on from the back or just press into the front panel

Cheers

The bungs go in from the front and you cant get to the back of the badge because the air box is in the way, they are about £6 for 4 bushes and they are top hat shaped.

Mark, no problem, you'll find the new ones are a bit stiff to press the badge into so just take it steady or warm them up a little beforehand (cup of hot water or similar may make it easier)
