Emblems

How big are the holes behind the emblems on the side of our trucks?

Was thinking about taking them off, and putting these on to cover the holes.

I don't have an answer to your question but those look cool. If you get to do it post some pics.

I don't think the new emblems you are looking at will work. You can try to find out the dimensions for the new emblems but the hole placement will also be a bit different than the new emblems. I took all of mine off to plastidip and the holes are located about 1/4" from each end of the emblem with the holes being offset (one is higher than the other). Hole size is less diameter than a dime, maybe around 3/8" diameter. Worst case is the hole wouldn't be fully covered and you would get water in through the fender hole. Also when you do take it off you will need to buff out the area before putting the new emblem on as the 12-14 year old 2 sided tape likes to stay on there. Hope this helps.

I wasn't looking to bolt a new emblem on. Just wanted to cover it with a new one held on by only adhesive.

Yeah the factory emblems are held on with double backed tape. All of the new emblems come with 3M black doublebacked tape also so they all just stick on. I am still not sure that the new emblem will cover up the old holes. That is dependent on the width of the new emblem compared to the factory ones you have.

The 5.4 will not be big enough to cover both holes
