wished I had known this trick when I had my Saab. 9-3. Hatchback.
Some good quality badges available on Amazon in U.K.
Changed my bonnet and boot last week on Saab 9.3 convertible last weekend – masked all round and used very flexible kitchen knife to get under and remove old badges – screwdriver I found is too rigid
Need to put double sided tape on it also
I bought wheel covers. Peeled them off, peeled the hood ones off, then used a thin layer of JB Weld…just thought I'd share my idea.
haha false alarm he just drilled it out now. thanks again
help! I just helped my dad remove his bonnet slab badge but the actual two pins that hold it in…one snapped inside. what can we do? thanks in advance
Thank you, very interesting.
Using a piece of thread or floss as a saw to cut the adhesive is pretty effective as well – for those held by adhesive.

Brilliant. Many thanks
Any idea if the New NEVS Badge fits the 900? I'm wanting to do a little update to my 900
Worked perfectly on my 10 year old SAAB! Great tip re plastic and feeler gauge. Thank you very much
what worked for me on my 93 (and was safe for the paint) was to heat the emblem up with a heat gun (LIGHT HEAT DONT GET CRAZY WITH IT) and then take a credit card and run it all around the emblem and it came right up!
Not tryed on this particular item, but I have used dental floss, to remove other emblems on cars.
nice vid will probably do this to my saab, keep up the good work and have a great day sir
