Octy mk1 vrs grille badge help!

Featured Replies

Quick question, already asked it in the mk1 octy section but thought I'd try my luck here as well!

Due to an unfortunate incident I don't want to talk about(!), I've just had the front of my Octy mk1 vrs repaired.

There is though one outstanding issue, the vrs grille badge. All the new parts were ordered by the garage by vin number but the vrs badge has no obvious means of being attached. It has the main logo part with an adhesive backing and a flat plastic mounting plate but no way of attaching this to the grille.

We (the garage and I) have come to the conclusion that either the grille supplied is wrong and the correct grille should have a recess for the badge to be fitted to, or tha badge is incorrect and should have some kind of mounting kit (hooks or something similar).

Any ideas? Anyone replaced their grille badge or able to see on their car how it's attached?

Many thanks!

Its plain glued to the grille and has no recess, take some time and get measurements from another one before sticking it on, it sticks out like a sore thumb when its squint/out of place and would start me asking its history if I was looking to buy.

:thumbup:

EDIT IIRC the badge has a backing plate that is glued to the grille and the badge itself has double sided sticky on it to stick to the backing plate, both parts come under the one part number when you get it from the stealers.

the man speaketh the truth, confused the bejuses out of me aswell!!!
