GAP AT SERIES EMBLEM AND BODY SIDE MOLDING

MODELS: 1988 C/K

Some 1988 C/K models may have a gap between the series emblem and the body side molding on the front door. If this gap exists, it can be eliminated by performing the following procedure:

o Remove series emblem from the body side molding.

Note: Removal is accomplished by pulling or prying.

o Clean all dirt, oil and grease from the back of the series emblem and the body side molding.

o Using 3M tape P/N 6379 or 6380 (or equivalent), cut two pieces three inches long.

o Apply the two pieces of tape to the back of the series emblem as shown in Figure No. 1.

o Remove protective backing from each piece and reattach the emblem to the door.

o Using a roller, firmly press the emblem to the body side molding several times to ensure full tape contact.

o Repeat this procedure on the opposite door if this condition exists.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
