Subject:Re: _V_O_L_K_W_A_G_E_N_ emblem removal

Removal of said emblem was accomplished on the '67 "westy resto from hell"
via removal of the little clips located behind the hatch interior panel.
Once the clips were removed the emblem will slip right out/off. Replacing
the clips can be done through your local Ace hardware store. I even noticed
that HOME DEPOT carries these clips in the hardware aisle.
