Fasteners for side cover emblems
« on: July 25, 2016, 12:15:32 PM »
Just received my beautiful new side covers from Yamiya and need to transfer my emblems over.  Any idea where to find the little fasteners that hold the emblems in place?

thanks,

If ever needed, clips are difficult to remove without breaking the post. Some use clear silicone as an adhesive instead.

Any decent hardware store will have them in the fastener section.

Look for 3mm Starlock washers, uncapped.
I paid like $3 for a pack of 10.

I remove them with 2 O ring picks, get under the tabs and rotate while lifting.
