Rear Roundel Base Removal?
 

I was wondering how the base of the roundel on the rear trunk comes off. Is it glued? or what? i wanted to take it off to clean it and put it back on but if it is glued prob not.

Thanks

not that I know how to remove it, but in 10 or so BMWs over the years, I have yet to see a part glued to the body. Try the part ETK or realoem.com to see if you can figure out how its' assembled.

For starters...
 

Always use the search function. I was able to replace all roundels simply by doing a search.

ya i used the search function. There are no threads on the base just the roundel. I checked realoem already and it didnt show how.

:D I just replaced my front and rear roundels!

The rear roundel is a glue on and a bit$H to get off. Once you remove it, you will need a new one! Be very careful removing it. I had a buddy slightly pry it while I ran a very sharp razor blase around the edges to break the glue seal. To replace I cleaned all the old glue off and cleaned it......once that is off you will need I believe it was an 8mm hex type screwdriver ( I just butchered what the name of the tool is). Take off base, clean, tighten back on and apply new roundel. Done!

I hope this helps!:D

That is the whole thing not just the roundel on the top of the base?

Yes! The whole thing. First remove glued on Roundel. That will expose the screw to remove the base.

thanks!

Very Welcome!

I took mine off with a cheap credit card and a blow dryer. It softens the glue/tape and it came of easily.:thumbup:
