The incorrect Chrysler emblem(the smaller Chrysler from a New Yorker)was glued onto my ‘68 300 trunk lid. I was going to leave it, but it came off when a rag got under a corner while cleaning and it came off. I got a correct one from Murray Park , but want to attach it as it was originally. Is it a push nut, or a self threading nut? 1/8 “ ? Thanks, Jim
 
Push nut.
But that area of the trunklid is known to blowout from rust caused by moisture running between the two layers of metal through the holes.
When I restored my 68 Newport, I repaired the trunklid and did not drill holes for the Chrysler badge.
I have a NOS badge I cut the tips and used 3M trim tape to install back on the trunklid.
 
I reason most all badges have been stick-ons for many years now.
