Hi very hard to get off with out damaging the grill, you could try hair dryer and a very tiny flat edge tool to prise it out. Personally they are stuck in for good. If your badge sits in a recess then I'd stick the new black over the green. You will never get out a badge in a recess with no damage to the plastic edge. |

Damn, I was hoping that they were just snapped into the grill but that confirms it.

The green badge would BUG me to death. I'd have to to try all attempts to get the black one in. Black will look much more modern and in keep with Range Rover. |

On the earlier cars, it's simply a case of putting a screw through the middle of the badge at an angle and then prising off. Any damage is covered up by the new badge. Bodsys Brake Bible

Thanks, I have had a black badge in the glove compartment for some time, but not been able to figure out how to remove the green one without damaging the grill. Looking forward to fixing it now. 2015 Range Rover Sport HSE TDV6, Corris Grey |
