    Hey Sean

    I am not too sure about the GTS Dash's. The badge that we used as the production sample came off a Premier or Statesman Dash.

    I think what Jason is saying could be right though..

    cheers

    It seems practical. Dunno just a thought.

    had another thought!!!!!

    The late HX got the rts also on some models. So this is how it would have been fitted to those HX dashes. =)

    Im a smart cookie!

    The square hole in the badge was so that we could remove the metal RTS plate without damaging the front of the badge. If you have ever tried this, you will know what I am talking about..

    In the LX one, it was there already.

    When the badges are in place you will not see the hole.

    cheers

    I have a few original stick on ones, they pop off quite easily. They all seem to have the little square cut out in them, never noticed it before.....they are half filled up with glue

    Yeah, they seem to come off the Dashes and glovebox easily but it's trying to get the RTS plate out of the badge that is hard to do.

    BTW, what is the black face RTS badge from?

    cheers
