New glovebox emblem
Check out my new glovebox emblem. It's an OEM dash script emblem from a 1957 Chevy (150/210). I found it at spring Carlisle. I'll show you how I installed it.

Re: New glovebox emblem
I taped a piece of cardboard to the glovebox door.

Re: New glovebox emblem
I then pushed the pins on the emblem into the cardboard.

Re: New glovebox emblem
I drilled holes through the cardboard and into the glovebox door and installed the emblem. It fit so snug that I didn't need any emblem inserts. That's it.

Re: New glovebox emblem
Thanks guys. As you can see from my pictures, this truck is not all stock so I feel OK doing little things like this. Not so much on my '70 K10. That's what makes these trucks fun. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes. As many people on here have said before, it a personal preference thing and you should do what makes you happy.
