I thought the front and rear H's had some sort of clip. I would just buy the red JDM badges and 3M tape.

yeah the front/back have to inserts to "plug" the sign into the trunk..but i was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to make them stick there other than super glue.

ps:thanks for the reply even though my post sounds pretty lame.

Well when you buy new emblems they come with adhesive already... Or do you want to stick it on even better?

doesnt it clip to the other side? (my emblems are gone too) so clip it in + bend the little teeth til its snug in there and cant be pried open by a credit card. or u can doublesided tape, i dont see why u cant superglue em just a little bit, seeing how its gonna scratch ur paint over time anyways, and if ur gonna take it off to shave em, well u gotta do bondo/paint work anyways.

Use emblem and trim adhesive... problem solved, it's worked for me many times.

the prelude emblem doesnt clip, it just has holes to align it. use the best super glue you can find...that should hold it. the adhesive that comes on the new ones works pretty good too though

I always use super glue gel.
It does the job and then some.
The gel will stay put and not drip everywhere like the regular ****.
