you install these with an elastic ribbon material run thru the paper clip looking piece behind the button then run the toggle on the other end of the ribbon thru a small metal bar with holes.  see my pics.

When I re apholstered my 63 bucket seats I used elastic material (like underwear waist band) to tie to the back of the emblem then pull through the bar on that is hog ringed to the springs on the seat back. Careful ...don't put too much pressure on these aftermarket emblems as the bend pretty easy.
