I did not purchase these with my car, and would like to add them myself. Has anyone done this, and if so - do the instructions (if any) clearly show how to do it? Or if anyone would be so kind as to post a DIY...I like to see this stuff in print before I decide to purchase the item, being as I am tool-illiterate.


Also, I apologize in advance if this is meant to be posted in the tech forum itself :confused:

There is literally nothing to it. Once you get the accents... clean where they are going to mount with rubbing alcohol treat the area with the supplied primer peel the backing off the included, pre-mounted 2 sided tape stick 'em in place poke the little included plastic pins through the pre-drilled holes (front accent only) and you're done!Have fun! :D

And they wanted to charge me $50 for THAT?!!

Thanks a lot, I'll be ordering those ASAP.

I decided to replace my dull, faded front rotary symbol with one from RXstrakes.com. The new one is bright and shiny and I couldn't wait to put in on.

I figured this would be relatively easy, but it wasn't. The rotary symbol on my car appeared to be attached with some very tiny, slot head screws. Well, finding a way to get those screws turned, with their heads turned to the inside of the V proved challenging, but eventually I got both of them turning. Problem was, regardless of how much I turned them, they refused to come out. :anger:

I started looking carefully and how the symbol is attached and pulled down slightly on it. This unhooked it from underside of the grill opening. After doing that, I was able to tilt the top part of the V slightly towards me and could see that the screws in question had the tiniest nuts I have ever seen on their backsides. Now I know why they would not just screw out!

Anyhow, the screws are luckily pretty short. I was able to pry the symbol away from the black plastic that it mounts on. Afterwards, I just wiggled the other side out as well. I cleaned up the residue left from the sticky mounting tape on the original V and put my shine new V on. I decided to forgoe the screws that came with the new V. That sticky tape seems very secure and after you put the V back into it's top notches, it seems to be in there nice and snug. :rock:

Hope this helps anybody replacing their front V symbol.
