Needed tools
To safely and damage-free remove the badge on your VW T6 or T6.1, it's essential to use plastic pry tools. Also known as trim tools, panel removers or molding levers. These tools allow you to gently loosen the clips of your front emblem without damaging the logo or the grille.
Step-by-step instruction
Removing the Existing Emblem
-
Placing the tool: Insert the plastic pry bar at the top between the grille and the logo. Be sure to push the lever as deep into the gap as possible to create good leverage.
-
Prying off the VW logo: Gently pry off the badge by slightly pressing the lever upward. Once one section is loosened, move along the edge of the badge bit by bit.
-
Continue around the edges: Repeat this step all around until all locking points are released. Be careful not to apply too much pressure to avoid damage.
Tip: Use the back of your new emblem to see where the locking clips are located -
Removing the VW logo: Once it’s fully loosened, you can carefully remove the logo.
Note: A loose base plate lies underneath the badge. Make sure it doesn't fall, as it’s not fixed in place.
Installing the New Logo
-
Prepare the base plate: Carefully place the base plate exactly in the designated area, directly below where the badge will go. Make sure it fits correctly and doesn't slip.
-
Align the logo: Position the new part so the clips of the badge align with the cutouts in the grille. Take your time to ensure all hooks are seated properly.
-
Press in the VW badge: Gently but firmly press all around the badge until all clips are securely locked in place. Check that the badge sits flush and no gaps are visible.
