DIY FOR MY NEW GRILL SS EMBLEM MOUNT PAD
Thought I would put up my DIY of my new mount pad for the SS grill emblem. As it was was a quick fix before I wanted something cleaner and better. Before I just shaved down the two"straps" on the pad connecting it to the bracked behind the grill.These fit through the grill slats and tied behind the grill to hold it. looked o.k. but the emblem was loose and stuck out and away from the grill. This new method also gives a use for the plastic license plate mount that I wont need.
