Looks like they just push in, no nut? If there is a nut, can't see how one would get to it behind all the metal. Any input? Thanks in advance.

As much as the emblems sell for before prying on the emblems I'd consider using a 1" hole saw on the inner roof structure to gain access to the clip so one person can squeeze the retainer clip while a second person gently pulls the emblem off the roof... Not a great picture but... 7707519-IMG_1512.jpg (39 downloads) Last edited by 1_WILD_RT; 05/15/13 11:20 PM.

But kinda like a barb they are hard to pull out... Plus when they were building these cars the line worker probably had access to a hundred SE emblems, if I had access to a hundred SE emblems I'd be staking out Ebay..
