Water collecting under hood emblems

What did you use to stick the trim to the truck or is there an adhesive backing to it? I went through a carwash and it was super annoying so I’d like to try this as well!

No glue, pressure holds it in place.

Yes. I used a plastic trim tool to raise it slightly to make insertion easy. It is also serated on the back side to mold around the curved areas without binding. Once you get it and see it, you will understand how easy it is.

Awesome! At my drive thru wash it always leaves some of the liquid soap residue in the emblems and faux vents. So then I have to pull into the manual bays to rinse the soap out, then lift the hood and let it drain, then use a sponge to get the remaining water that leaks out. So my only question is where does the water that usually pools go? Wouldn’t this trap the water in the emblems along with (in my problem) the liquid soap? Thanks!
