Changed out my old gold set this morning using your method of removal and install. Took me less than one minute to complete the front one. Did the rear one as well. It just takes time to remove all of the old adhesive, but aside from that it was simple and they look great! Thanks again!
Doug The Eliminator that adhesive is no joke. I remember a body shop guy telling me how much he hates taking these rear ones off
I actually watched I guy take his entire grill apart...thank you for saving me from THAT! I owe you many beers sir!
Will always take beer 🍺 Cheers to you and so happy this helped out!!!!
This is the best video on replacing the bow-tie on the internet! Thank you!
Mark thanks so much for that. Glad it helped and hope it helps others save time and money
The video that the dealerships don’t want you to see! Thanks bud👍🏼
You are right on the money there. This is exactly what they do and then charge you double time. And even when they take the front end off you don’t get all your clips out back in 😔
Thanks A lot that made my life so much easier. I was almost ready to pop the grill and it wasn’t moving. Went back to u tube and click on your post. You sir deserve a beer.
Cheers to that! Thanks for tuning in and I’m glad this has helped others save tons of time
Thanks so much popped mine off my 2017 in a few mins so much easier and quicker than taking everything off!
Zack Thompson glad it helped. Cheers 🍻
Great video! If anyone needs to know I own a 2015 Silverado and the bowtie in the front is inlet slightly. This method works but if you own a 2015 I suggest you pry from both top and bottom as to not break the clips. I pryed like this video and broke my clips so be carefully, but if you are like me and going to black It doesn't matter breaking the clips just make sure you get the broken pieces out of the hole before slotting the new one!
Thanks for this. I was about to use the brute force method and rip the s.o.b. off and crazy glue the new one on.......no way was I going through the whole process of taking off the grille just for an emblem swap. Watching your video it took me literally 2 minutes. I’m a proud UA-cam University Graduate. 🎓
Sir your post is the best 2020 "How to Video" on UA-cam ..big cheers from 🇰🇼 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Just did it on my 2022 Tahoe. Worked perfectly.
I ordered black bow ties from the dealership, and they quoted me $175.00 for installation. You just saved me a whole lot of money, and a lot of time too. 👍
How much were the bow ties
they are $100 for the set alone @@girlthatskeion
Ok. I was skeptical because I saw all the vids that said I had to take the grille off. But I just used your method with a couple old gift cards and it took me less than five minutes! I used one to get behind the emblem and then slid the second one in behind it for more rigidity. Thanks!
This was the best tip on how to install the front Bowtie, no more than 5 minutes! Thank you very much for posting the video!
Absolutely. So glad its helping get this job done fast.
Thanks for the video! I was swapping out the gold bowties on my 2018 Silverado, for the 100 year celebration bowties and wasn't looking forward to removing the grill.
It was easy. I used a thin piece of poly-carbonate and popped it right off.
The rear was another story. That glue is something else.
Good thing I've got some tough thumbnails.
Wayne Black that rear bow tie even makes the paint and body shop people cringe lol
So it worked for the 2018 Silverado as well?
I agree. Front one, no problem. Rear one, got the emblem off in a short time using fishing line. Removing all of that old adhesive was a whole other task!!!! Glad I am retired and I have a lot of time on my hands. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just did this today on mine. The last step I had to slide down and to the right to get the bottom middle tab to let go. Worked perfectly. Thanks for the video!
You are welcome! Glad it worked out 💪🏻
Thank god I saw this post.. took me literally 3 mins.. thank you!
Always glad to help. Think of all the time and frustration you could have wasted
Worked great for my 2019 Chevy Equinox 👍🏼
Thanks man! Easiest method on here by far! Took about 2 minutes.
Thank you sir. Just didn't want to see anyone taking off the grill or getting under the truck when not needed.
You're Tha Man !!! you won the best how to do it right.!! Thanks Buddy...
You’re the man!! I was looking for videos of how to pop off those dumbass tab/pins and this got the entire job done in 2 minutes instead! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you sir. Appreciate it and glad it helped out!!!!!
After watching all the videos of anywhere from removing the grill to reaching up from underneath to remove the emblem, to having it professionally installed, I dreaded replacing the emblem..' then I saw this video... You're right, it took literally 1 minute to pull off the old one (clips intact) and snap in the new one. Thanks!!
Dude that's awesome! Thanks for posting. I want to switch out the bowties on my Chevy as well.
Was a fun project and really makes my Chevy stand out in the parking lot.
On my 2018 Suburban (and it appears on your truck too), you can literally just reach your hand through the hood latch hole and pop the tabs loose. No tools needed, and took about 15 seconds.
Thank you so much, Changed it on my 2019 Silverado in just seconds
j crock so glad it worked out and fast. Enjoy all your time saved. Have a great weekend. 😀
And they were gonna charge me 30dollars at the dealership, thanks!
Bad_Muh_ Fka glad to save you money. Enjoy a half tank of gas ⛽️ on me 🤑
You just saved me some time. Appreciate you making a video on this.
Very welcome 🙏
Worked exactly as described. Thanks, man!
gg0wned you’re welcome
Thanks for the video dude saved me some time and money, have the same tools thanks again.🙏🏽
Edub 760 cheers!
Cool! That was neat. Thanks for posting it.
Old Vet so glad it helped.
Thanks, exactly 1min on my 2016 Colorado!
Worked perfect....great video...thanks Bud
Thank you never been so easy
Cheers to you!
Wow that was so freaking easy thanks
You just save me a lot of time i was about to take the whole grill off like on other videos. Thanks!!!!
Luis Leija so glad it saved you the hassle and most importantly....TIME. Cheers
Thanks for this. I wasn't sure about the front emblem.
Heywood Jablowme you’re welcome 😇 hopefully it helped you save a ton of time
Another reason to go Chevy
Easy peasy! Thanks to you!
So glad it helped. Cheers!!!!
Lol. Wow! It took me like 5mins great video dude.
Hiban Ramirez thanks very much for tuning in
You are the Man!
Saved me a ton of time and grief.
Took less that 30 seconds.
Thank you!
Killer video bro.. appreciate you!
Awesome video. Mine somehow got cracked so I must replace it.
Took less than a minute, switched to the black too!
I wish I would have done it this way. I popped my grille free and did it from the back like other videos, now the seal for the radiator doesnt sit right.... Good vid. Ty.
Robert Blais not cool when things don’t line back up. Very frustrating for sure. Thanks for tuning in!!!
For those of you who own a 2010 Colorado, it is a little different. If your hand is small enough, mine isn’t so I asked a friend, reach down through the opening by the hood latch and undo the two nuts holding the emblem in place.
Put the new one in place, and you will have to apply some pressure to the nuts as the plastic pins on the new emblem are not threaded. You actually cut the threads when installing the nuts.
Great tip. Thanks for that!
great video thanks can i able to remove GMC emblem the same way ??
Thanks brothaaa👍🏼👍🏼
Did this on my Chevy Cruze. But man was that old adhesive keeping them things on there 😂😂
nice may do this future truck lol
And the stock gold color is nice..
Nice
I just did this using a old credit card 👍
Shawn Biers yes yes and yes
Were did u order the black bow ties from thank u
hey dude could I use this method on my monte carlo?
Man thanks! That’s the easiest video I have seen on how to do this. Do you have a video on the tail gate bow tie?
Bryan Norris I do yes I just haven't finished the editing yet. I hope to get up after holidays. I've also got some others on a few tricks with truck too. Thanks for comment though. Glad it helped.
I just posted my rear bowtie video today. Check it out ua-cam.com/video/nm8kujQChfQ/v-deo.html
I wonder if this would work on 2024 Chevy Colorado
So simple. Wish I would have know when I plasti dipped my front one. Would have been way easier
A P.A.C FILM thanks for tuning in. Sorry you didn’t see sooner. Spread the word though 😀
You think this will work for 2007-2013 Gm trucks and suv?
Will this work on a 2013 Chevy Equinox?
I saw one today
I tried this method and did it nice and slow, snapped one of the clips off. If you want to try it just be careful. New bowtie cost $180
Wow
wow thats amazing.. I have a 2014.. you sure it comes off the same way?
I have a 2014 as well. I broke tabs. The bow tie I have looks to have a different tab design.
Where can I get the black bow tie?
Great video! Can you tell me where you got your front emblem from?
Bought mine from a Chevy mechanic off Craigslist. He bought them from the dealership but he had sold his truck before putting on. You can also get them from Amazon which I have a link in the description
does this method work on a 2013?
Ima paint mine
Would this be for 2018 also? If something breaks wouldn’t most likely be the emblem you want to remove anyways?
I was told the clips are different but yes should be similar and I think just the emblem numbers to purchase are different. If the gold tabs broke in theory no issues for you as your replacing. Just bad if you want to take off bow tie if you sold it and return to stock.
So basically! Lol thanks for the video.
Erik Acosta 😂 yeah was definitely the words of the year for me. Lol basically I need to edit better
My 98 Chevy truck's emblem uses screws. To remove it, you must unscrew it from behind.
Tabs broke on the rear of my Chevy equinox, they're stuck in there now, anyone got any tips??
Looks good but why didn’t you just paint it black?
Do you have a video on how to do the back ?
Yes I do. Check out ua-cam.com/video/nm8kujQChfQ/v-deo.html
Ha, and here I was watching a couple of vids on how to remove a bowtie by removing bolts and popping off the grill.
Cheers!!
I did the same thing! Another lesson for me, "Everything is on UA-cam!"
Did you spend $150 on the front and rear emblems?
Would this go good on a 2016 white Chevy Malibu
Abe Garcia black and white combo is the best IMO.
Sounded like America when you popped the black one in
Will this work for a 2017 Chevy Malibu?
Plastic Spray Bottle Yes it should work fine just be careful when popping the tabs off. Make sure that area is warm not sure if you’re in a cold area at the moment but would make the plastic tabs brittle if it’s too cold
What's name of the tools, what store can you buy them. Thanks

Where’d y’all get the new emblem?
Link in description for you :)
I was able to find mine locally on Craigslist
Which of the two Amazon links is the front bow tie?
Both are for front and back. Which year do you have?

mine is not staying, either the yellow and black
Where’d you buy your black bow tie from?
Aaron Z link attached in description for Amazon. But I got local off Craigslist. You can also grab from your local Chevy dealer
Looks simple but the bow tie is made in Korea and Chevy is American 🇺🇸
Hey where did u buy the black Chevy emblem...
Jay Parker got mine locally on Craigslist at the time, seller had bought from Amazon. Link is in my description for you
Will it work for 2012 tahoe ppv
sløtwn NO. The 07-13 Tahoe has 2- 10mm Bolts on the back of the emblem. You will need to take them off. A1 Auto has some great videos to help you out for that model. Sorry it’s not the same way but shouldn’t take you long with right tools
Does this work for 98 Tahoe?
Amy Crouch Yes it is very similar but they have two clips holding that emblem. They are on the left and right side so you’ll be wanting to be very careful when administering any pressure on emblem
Would this work on a 2013?
Garret Mumphrey similar but not the same. Be cared when trying to get the clips removed
Is this the same for a 1995?
No 88-98 trucks you would have to take off the grill. The emblem is held together with nuts
So that's how the stole mine XD
I'm sorry I didn't tell you my truck. 2010 chevy suburban 1500
Tried to pop mine off on my 2014 Cruze and it didn’t even budge. I was afraid I would break it..
Shakyra Hartzog the Cruze most likely has different clips. This only applies to Silverados and Tahoe’s suburban etc
I put a ,

CADILLAC PICKUP🤣✨
Chevy..😀
Is it really that much cheaper to make your bow ties in Korea? I just feel like that could be made in the same country as the truck.
Yeah, Mexico...Lol.
My chevy was made in Canada
Dude probably 3 cents to make one of these emblems and gm charges $120 for a pair of black bowties lol
Ha - yeah exactly
this video made me break the bowtie off smh... everyone just be careful
Will this method work on a camaro???
James Mason IDK 😬 would depend on the year as they are different throughout
@@ScouserTech it's a 2016
@@jmase6275 That looks a bit harder on your car as you have the nose to battle with of your hood. You have similar clips but you may have to reach behind the grill with a screw driver to free them. Be very careful as the tabs can break easy.
@@ScouserTech damn i was thinking as much, thx bro
To bad it doesn't work on a 2018
I know every body have there style but wy not the coler of the truck...the black out style is so dated let's moev on ...
Well....... I didn’t fair so well ......
Got it out but broke the dog shit 🐕💩 out of the tabs 😫😫
My biggest mistake was probably doing it today (Feb. 21, 2021) in too cold of weather it’s barely 40 F here.
Might have had better luck if I chose a warmer day or perhaps used a heat gun first. Mine is a 2014 with the plain ass black W//T grill & the emblem seemed quite brittle .......
“Live and learn ..... die & forget it all”
Yikes yes any plastic job should not be done in cold weather. Did you break it taking it off? Or putting them on?
Taking it off :(
Broke the stock amber one
Replaced it with an aftermarket cheapie silver one cause the truck is silver
Since it’s a black grill & black bumper the silver knock off embelm looks fairly cool ....... for now atleast
@@bradwilson5552 Definitely don’t throw the emblem away, just stick some magnets on the back and put it on your toolbox 🧰
You make it look so easy, but watch me ruin my vehicle that I owe a fortune on and ride around badgeless for the next several years lol
Daryl Stokes haha just take it slow and get the right tools to prepare you. Can always glue or tape it back on lol joking
I wonder how much a professional would charge me. I want it to be done correctly the first time lol
Daryl Stokes if they charge you for doing it my way then they are robbing you. The back is difficult and time consuming but the front is easy just take your time.
Is it the same way on most Chevrolet vehicles?
D similar but not always the same. My video is only just for the Silverados. Some Tahoe’s and Suburbans are also the same
This video is great except I broke every tab and probably need that new chrome piece! There’s actually 4 tabs!
Trash how to.
I think the original "gold" Chevy bowtie looks so much better!!!!!!
