Faded badges

phenonix · 5th September 2009, 01:30

Hi
I'm looking for 2 new badges that are on the "d" pillar?, rear passenger door windows
also the badge for the boot pre facelift model, see them online/ebay sometimes but not always with the dimensions so afraid to buy if i get the wrong ones, i've also seen users here with a badge attached to their interior dash so i'd like to do the same, anywhere i can buy all four?

I purchased this larger sized chrome union jack to replace my faded original and when you get it, it is noticeably larger. But I reckon once on, it looks really nice.

I could always take a pic if you require...?

Edit: just realised you probably mean the rover badge, not the union jack

The original Rover side badges had lugs on them and are no longer available (except at great cost on EBay sometimes).
Have to use alternatives.

if they are faded you can bring them back with a little elbow grease, here in the uk we have a product called t-cut which is excellent for lifting the dull layer (although im not sure if it is available where you are) another product good for this is a product called autosol, although it is a metal polish but still does the job
as for the rover badge on the boot you can easily replace this with a rover badge from the front of a rover 400 or similar models check this thread http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=33323

You can get a boot badge here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

is that the correct size/part number for the boot?

I don't know about the part number but he says it is suitable.He's obviously a regular seller and has 100% feedback so highly unlikely to be trying to pull a fast one. Send him a message if you're not sure about it.

not that i think he's being dodgy, just not sure how many varieties of grill/boot badges there have been with pre/facelift etc, to be sure i get the right one, but i will e-mail him.
