How to replace the manufacturer's badge on a Kia Optima? Let's see how to remove it from the back of the boot. Obtain some plastic trim tools to avoid scratches, then pry between the logo and the plastic of the boot until it detaches from the bodywork.

Use a plastic wire to cut the adhesive from the logo. Once the piece is detached, remove it from its seat and prepare to fit the new logo: position the badge perfectly on the plastic holder, press with your hands until the badge fits securely into the holder.

Go over the surface of the logo several times until it is fully adhered.
