Anyone have the measurements for the placement of the 914 emblem on a 72? My panel is not original and has no holes. I've tried searching around but no luck. Anyone able to measure some hole positions for me?
Thanks, Scott |

DON'T drill holes!!!!! Take off the tabs and use thin double face tape like everyone does now. Just a spot for rust!!
NEVER drill holes unless absolutely necessary!! |

Was going to drill holes to install it, bit I wasn't too thrilled about doing this. So, I guess I should clip the tabs off the badge, rather than drilling the holes? |

Guess I could just eye it looking at pictures on the Internet. |

No matter if you use tape or holes, you still need the position, right ?
I hope this helps, this is from my 73 1.7 It is in inches and cm's so I hope you can use it. to explain, start of the measuremnet is from here:  And then see the width from there:  and the height  I think these are the original positions on my car...but since I am not the first owner I cannot be 100% sure (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I do not think any of the previous owner moved them to confuse the next owners :-) |
