I recently bought a red one from eBay. Bare in mind the eBay one isnt the same fitting so wasnt very simple to fit :undecided:

Dealer. . .
you know how much it would cost? Do they fit it for you ?
-
Im sure if you ask them they would but it just clips in, its really simple.
As for cost, I'm not sure. They will tell you if give them a call.

About a tenner from your dealer - just clips on - should take you all of 10 seconds :wink:

Unlucky there mate :sad: what is wrong with these people? like Alan says you can order one up from your dealer! and are a piece of cake to fit.
Or you could go the stealth route and completely de-badge her?? :smiley:

Doesnt look right on the standard grille as it would leave a big black "splodgey" area where the badge would clip on and just looks rubbish.

Many years ago in London there was a similar craze for nicking VW badges and using them with a chain as a trendy necklace.
Before the days of CCTV and secure parking there were few deterrents, but one commonly-used ploy was to tape one of these to the back of the badge :
