Ok so this is gonna be a pretty simple DIY. Was bored one day sitting in the garage and saw my accord emblem sitting on the shelf and decided to put it to use. Ive seen this on ebay but it def isnt worth the 6-7 bucks to get it when you can debadge ur car for fee and do this as well.....ok so here goes

THINGS U NEED:

-glue
-accord emblem

1. take out ur third brake light.....there are clips that you can see from inside the trunk.....just look up!!! and also unclip the wiring harness

2. put some glue (i used glue cuz the double sided tape would show up when you press the brake) on the back of the emblem

3. place the emblem on the light like so.....

I bought a vinyl from ebay like 5 years ago that fit over the light, and only allowed the "Accord" to shine through. Get us some pics of that thing lit up!

I think the vinyl is a great idea for spoiler-less cars. I think seeing that chrome emblem there looks pretty awful. But if you had some vinyl that blocked out all the light, you could trace out the Accord emblem and have just that shine through. That's dope.
