replacement roundels
I got 2 new roundels to replace the ones on my car... How do you install them? I pulled the carpet away from tat area in the trunk and the location where the roundel is located, is covered by a piece of sheet metal.... do i have to pry it off from the outside?

Did you replace the grommets? You will need two per roundel.

You see, Jared likes to remove his roundel every Friday night and wears it around his neck like a "Beastie Boy" when he goes clubin' 80's style.....

craze, a bit back on topic, how did you put the new grommets in? Did you put them on the roundel or in the body first?
