LED Gmc emblem swap

[Keegan Hurst]

Hi, so I have a Sierra at4 with the LED emblem in the front. Is there a way to just pull out the emblems to paint without removing or unplugging the whole thing?

You can pull the OEM emblem off without removing the grille.  I did it to put the black bowtie on.  The GMC is held on like the Chevy with clips from the front.  If you have an interior removal set get under it from the bottom with a clean cloth between you plastic tool and the grille so you do not scratch it.  As you slide the tool to release the clip from the grille gently pull out and it comes off in like 10 seconds.  With your LED install you will have to fish the wires thru to tie into a running lamp power.  You can remove the grille, it is not hard but for me the entire switch took less than a minute.  Now you have to add time to run you wires.  Here is a youtube clip of a guy pulling his from the front on a 2021 GMC  Truck Badge Removal: 2021 GMC Truck logo swap from front grill - YouTube
