Here's a simple step-by-step guide to replacing the rear BMW badge on your E30. For this job you will need:
| Item | Part Number | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|---|
| BMW roundel | 51 14 1 872 969 | £20 |
| Grommet x2 | 51 14 1 902 279 | £4 |
| Flat-head screwdriver | - | - |
| Piece of cloth | - | - |
This is a relatively common problem with rear roundels. They bubble and break.
Using a small flathead screwdriver, very gently pry your old badge off. Use a cloth or other cushion, so thet you don't chip or break the paintwork. Work your way around the badge until it pops off.
Push the old gromits out of the boot lid. Ready yourself with some new ones.
Take the opportunity to clean the recess, and push the new grommets through.
Push the new badge firmly and evenly into the grommets.
Done!
