Frequently Asked Questions About International S1700-S1900 Hood Emblems & Bezels

What exactly are hood emblems and bezels used for?

Hood emblems are the decorative nameplates or logo badges mounted on the hood of your International S1700 or S1900, while bezels are the trim rings or surrounds that frame and secure the emblem in place. Together they restore the factory look of your truck or let you refresh a worn, faded, or missing badge with a new one.

Will these emblems and bezels fit my specific International S1700 or S1900 model year?

Most emblems and bezels in this category are designed to fit the S1700 and S1900 hood mounting locations used across these model families, but exact hole spacing and emblem size can vary between production years. Check the listed measurements and compatible model years on each product page, and compare them against your existing emblem or bezel before ordering.

What materials and finishes are available?

You will typically find emblems and bezels made from chromed plastic, stamped stainless steel, or die-cast metal, depending on the specific part. Finish options generally range from polished chrome to painted or brushed looks, so you can match the rest of your truck's trim or choose a finish that holds up better to daily wear.

How difficult is it to install a replacement emblem or bezel?

Installation is usually straightforward and can be done with basic hand tools. Most emblems either snap into a bezel or attach with mounting studs and clips on the back side that push through existing holes in the hood, while bezels typically screw or clip into place around the emblem. If your truck already has an emblem or bezel mounted, removing the old one first will make aligning the new part much easier.

How do I clean and maintain a chrome or metal emblem so it does not corrode or discolor?

Regular washing with mild soap and water, followed by a good wipe-down with a soft cloth, will keep most chrome and metal emblems looking their best. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners, since they can scratch the plating or dull a painted finish over time. For chrome pieces, a dedicated chrome polish applied occasionally can help maintain shine and reduce the chance of surface corrosion.
