Re: Emblem loose?
The speed nut might be bottoming out, or getting tight before it tightening up the emblem. Try putting a washer or two between the inside of the fender and the speed nut.

Cut a small circle out of a piece of flat rubber about 3/32nds or 1/8 of an inch thick and slide over the posts before you put the fasteners on. Worked for me. LockDoc
