Title: gti badge
Post by: mossy1969 on 09 March 2010, 14:19
seems like a silly question this but im in the process of buying a gti ,the only thing is that it has no gti badge on the back tailgate.i have priced up the badge and its only a tenner but you dont get any templates or dimensions for correctly positioning the badge.hopefully someone out there will shed light on this one either with a tape measure .many thanks

the badge has lugs on it that when pressed to the lift handle will line it up in the correct position.

Is it from a dealer or private? If private, why debadged?
If dealer, get them to stick it on for free.

The GTI badge at the back is glued on - no tabs or anything. Either dan_apps is thinking of the front GTI badge or of the VW badges. There's proper dimension information somewhere. Will have a dig around for you.
