I discovered the other day that they come in two sizes. The normal ones were too big for the thin pins on the Automatic badge for the 1100.

Hmmm. Mouse Condoms....Hmmmm.... Im hoping that hey will be suitable for the mounting of the T O R A N A badge across my nose cone. I reckon the will be.... but just cant remember how big the I/D and O/D are....... Hey Matt, if you do have some, reckon you can stick a pair of verniers on em and get some sizes mate? |

The proper Holden ones are little metal ones that chip the paint and cause rust. I might have a couple of them somewhere but I wouldn't have enough for a whole front panel. |

Really! With some Holdens in coastal areas you may see a thin trail of oxide/rust running down the paint below the badge. The metal clip has a bit of a lip that stops it pulling out but it can and will chip the paint. The plastic ones are much better as long as they are the right size for the pins and holes. |
