changing badge

Recommended Posts

This is how I changed the wheel centre badge [5JA 601 151 ULM] (if you don't want to keep the old one):

1, Hammered old screwdriver through existing badge to allow me to lever it off the wheel;

2. Rubbed some washing-up liquid around the edge of the hole;

3. Set new badge in kitchen sink, face down, and poured a full kettle of boiling water over it;

4. With cloth quickly set new badge in position on wheel and pushed.

The new badge went in without any bother; the boiling water had softened the edge rim of the badge sufficiently to allow an easy fit.

Hope this helps someone.

You sir are a butcher and should never be let near anything that holds any value greater than its scrap value.
