Removal of said emblem was accomplished on the '67 "westy resto from hell" via removal of the little clips located behind the hatch interior panel. Once the clips were removed the emblem will slip right out/off. Replacing the clips can be done through your local Ace hardware store. I even noticed that HOME DEPOT carries these clips in the hardware aisle. rvb\ ................................................................
