I am also looking for how to do these on my Li- if i buy the tool how do I use it?

I have a covolo seat badge that needs attaching too- anyone know the best way of doing this and how they would have been done originally?

Cheers

One for the road, I may have a few of these in the garage. Measure me the hole size in the badge and I will have a look, they dont need a tool to fit them they are split on the back and you just open up the split with a screwdriver/pliers etc.

The holes are 2mm newmanlammy.

Would they fit the toolbox as well?
