ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a means of deterring the theft of the medallion of a vehicle hood ornament. By substituting for the wire clip of the conventional hood ornament assembly a protective sleeve in which is contained a cotter pin having its upper portion or head heat treated to harden it, the assembly provides substantial resistance to the medallion being manually pulled out of the mounting base to expose any portion of the cotter pin. If the cotter pin is exposed, the hardened steel head portion and protective sleeve resist cutting by ordinary hand tools.
