How are my emblems attached?
I have a 99 accord coupe(to the left), and I am wondering how my (H) and (accord) emblems on the trunk are attached? Are they glued or what? I want to replace them with aftermarket ones like this:

typically they have two little posts that run through/into the trunk and are held on by a double sided style of foam sticky tape as well as the two screws.... pop your trunk and look at it from the inside...

i have '00 accord coupe.. the H has pins, the accord is jst glue.. i suggest get this stuff called "goo gone".. you can find it at any hardware store for around 5 bucks.. use a credit card or floss to take off the accord sign and then the goo gone to take off the rest of the glue.

Thanks for the info. I work at my dad's car lot and he has some of the goo gone, so I will be removing them soon. Do u guys think I should leave the (accord) off and just put the (H) emblem on or vice versa. I'm thinkin of leaving the (H) off and put the accord emblem in the middle of the trunk. Any suggestions?Thanks again.

funny thing i peeled mine off today to spray it black on my 05 coupe. the dealer ship told me to use a heat gun to take it off. it does have to pins but thats just there for guidance. but today was pretty hot and my car was baking in the sun so that wasnt needed. I grabbed a tiny slim tip flat head screw driver wrapped the tip of the screwdriver in a microfiber cloth and got under the badge... put alittle bit of pressure... and mine jsut popped right off. got pretty lucky. the new badge should come with two way sticky tape.... clean the area where the badge used to be. the dealer told me to use alittle bit of rubbing alcohol to get most, if any glue left behind, but dont let it sit. rub in try to get most off and whip off. even wipe after with water just to make sure u really get the rubbing alcohol off. try to clean it up pretty good. and apply ur new one. good luck. let me know if that helps

I took off my Accord and V6 emblem thesame night I drove the car home. It is just double sided tape. Heat it up real good and it will come right off. I am wanting a new "H" emblem though, where are you getting yours from online or local?
