It snaps on, there are 2 posts and 2 clip-on sorta things. Use a screw driver to get it started and then pull it off EVENLY! I have broke a few doing that! Then, put the thing on ebay, those go for $10-$15.

obvioulsy you would use the screwdriver behind the emblem, and behind the dash.. right.. or do you mean pry it off a bit then take the clips out.. are all the emblems interchangable

use a screwdriver carefully behind the emblem to pry it away a little, then use your hand to finish it off. IT is very easy. I had the emblem that just said CAMARO, and i replaced it with a Z28TPI one that fits in it exactly, u should be able to interchange them.

Yes i know what you mean with shippng costing a lot of money. I have to pay shipping all the way too Sweden. I want a new engine hood but the shipping rates are insane. And copanies that sell GM stuff in Sweden are limited and their prices are outrageus

I believe the only RS dash badge was the 25th Anniversary one. Thats what I got even though mine is a '91. It originally had the one that just says "Camaro".

Cross Fire injection was an abotion of an Idea created by GM back in the late 70's early 80's, not really sure what years got it... 82 & 83 Camaro & T/A for sure, not sure if the 80/81 Vette Got it tho.

HO motor works the same as the standard LG4, 4BBL, same heads, same crank, hotter cam, higher Compression, Dual snorkle in some cases, might have better exhaust, thats 'bout it.
