Guys,
I was looking at my 88 XJ and the word Jeep is 4 seperate letters each one attached individually to the grill surround. Three years ago when I changed out the raditor I recall looking at the backside of the surround and seeing how the letters were attached.
All the other nameplates use 2 sided tape to hold them on but this one is pins through holes in the grill surround. What I recall it looks like a paste or adhesive is on the pins to keep them in place, no nut looking things on the back side.
I lost the "J" and now am going to have the XJ painted and plan to pull off all the nameplates for a better job. I have the new nameplates, this front J E E P has a retail of $65. Can someone explain the attachement system, I can not find in my Factory Service manual or any of my of my other sources.
Thanks
Martin
