hood insulator with "sse bonneville" logo
 

at wreckers today, saw '91 sse, under hood sound insulator had big white lettering (clearly original) saying SSE
BONNEVILLE

I've read a few other posts here where people mention their cars have such. Sadly, this one was pretty torn up, or I would have taken it, and tried to fit it to my '95 ssei (with no lettering on the insulator).

Far as I know, my insulator is original but has no lettering, anyone know which years sse/ssei came with lettered hood insulators, and/or why mine isn't lettered? Is there a GM part# for a lettered hood insulator for a 95?

Thanks,

My 90 sse has the white lettering on it. One thing a friend of mine did with his GA GT was made a stencil and painted his hood insulator. It turned out pretty sweet too.

just want to confirm, the GM P/N 25646138 is for a SSE/SSEI specific hood insulator with logo lettering, there would be some other P/N for a SE non-lettered hood insulator, right?

Also, I like the stencil idea, I think I might try it. Thanks

our 1995 SSE did not have one, nor our 1992 SE, or our 2000 SSEi :cry:

Mine has one. It says "SSE" and it has the Pontiac logo (even though it's an SSEi).

my 92 ssei saids sse ....i wanan knwo why they left the i out...

most likely to save money. it costs less to make a bunch of ones that say SSE instead of some that say SE, SSE, and SSEi. :D

Wow...that makes so much sense...no wonder...well done, the obvious is usually the right answer :wink:

of course. ;) I just want to know why every single Bonneville we buy, we get jipped and never get the cool insulators. :x Even the fully loaded SSE, and SSEi didn't have it. :?

My insulator doesn't have anything and I don't wanna go get a SSE insulator...thats kinda poser"ish" to do that :lol: esp with an SE

Duct tape to the right of the E might just do it for a quick fix :wink:
