Gran Sport Trunk Emblem

Does the emblem just press in to place? I see no way to access the back of it. Thanks

There are some small clips that slide onto the "tangs" on the back of the trunk emblem, but they are typically rusted away.
If your car has been freshly painted, I'd just press it in as the paint will fill in the slots some. That's what I did, it isn't going anywhere.
If not, you could build up the tangs with JB Weld or something like to make if fit tight.
