Where to buy correct size MG ZT Badge
I see there are several sellers selling the MG badges on the bay of 'e' but are these badges any good ?
All I have left of my MG badges front and rear, are the chrome backing plates. Do I take these plates off and reinsert new badges, or do I place new silicone insert badges onto the backing plates ? Taking off the chrome badges, the whole front badge area measures 58mm and the rear badge 40mm. Leaving on the chrome badge, the front inside area measures 55mm and rear 35mm. Cheers Fellas. |

I just read this in the listing... locator pins on the back are removed as the badges are flat backed. |

Thanks Brian, but I don't think the link is working.

Its not an OEM badge that would be about £15ish but it looks really good and easy to fit ....

I replaced the grill badge on mine with an OEM one from Perrys, presumably left over stock from when they used to be an MGR franchise. I haven't got a link but there was an eBay shop, think it was about £15 if they still have them.

The whole badge size on the front measures 59mm, the insert area if 54mm. The whole badge area on the rear is 40mm, the insert area is 35mm. Is this correct for a MK1 ZT with the higher boot spoiler? The ones I had delivered today, they are to thick to stick on the original badge, and to small to replace the original. Last edited by Dallas; 13th April 2015 at 17:15.. |
