Getting my hand into a position that would allow to squeeze the tabs on the back of the reflectors was a cruel joke. Getting the Acexxon rear reflector inserts in was a 5 second process after with no problem at all. Also, the hood roundel is secured by black plastic grommets and absolutely no adhesive. Running the fishing line around it was unnecessary as the provided silicone pry tool was sufficient. The grommets were transferred to the back of the new roundel and fit right back in snugly.
Items installed:
IND painted hood roundel (gloss black)
IND painted trunk roundel (gloss black)
IND painted trunk emblem (gloss black)
IND painted front reflectors (Nardo grey)
Acexxon painted rear reflector inserts (gloss black)
great upgrades, I did the same roundels, etc., makes huge difference!
it will be that much sweeter once u'll get the car back after PPF etc.,
