I've always used a tea spoon use the bowl end to lever it up

Thats a great little vid, thanks for sharing, just about to do mine, it wasnt that easy last time i changed them but will try the card this time

 

[DangerousDave]

I use thick cloth (last time I used a microfibre). The card doesn't aid leverage, but cloth does.

Hello All,

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but does anyone know if the above process also works for removing the boot lid roundel on an M? Or is there another way of getting this off?

I splashed out this week on a couple of bits that needed tidying up: £102 for a new gear know and £33 for the boot lid roundel. On that subject, why does a bit of plastic and leather (gear knob) cost £102? I thought half that would still be over the top!

Thanks

R

@Soper Parts Lincoln would of been cheaper on parts

That was from Soper with the Z discount.

Those kind of bits are always expensive unfortunately, but because they are cosmetic most of us are happy to pay for them

I need a bonnet badge
Mine came off when I was cleaning the Z at the weekend
Think Alan is going to order me one

Get Shelly to wash your car..

 

[Shelly]

That was quick thinking @hard top

quick tip, try using the windscreen mount for a sat nav, the sucky bit with the suction lock...
I did it, secure it right on the roundel then lock it off and its something to pull it off with
That makes no sense even to me but hopefully y'all can get the idea
