Be careful when debadging the Gen F...

... Because although the rear vauxhall boot badge has not got any locating pins, the boot lid itself has locating holes. Not sure about the bonnet, but for now an attempt has been prevented.

Then would that suggest, if you are thinking of putting on HSV badges, those will have locating pins?

If de-badging completly, then it would need some work doing !!

Apparently, HSV rear emblem features locating pins on it. Hence the holes on the bootlid. The car is still at the dealer's, but I asked them not to chance it with the front bonnet badge in case that were to reveal similar thing. I will do some digging and maybe find out if I can remove safely the bonnet badge.


I have not even got the car yet, but already have a list of works it needs doing

Please, let me know once finished. It would be good to know if the bonnet one has got any pins / holes.

On E1 there are no holes on the boot lid. They changed that. I only hope the front badge can be safely removed.

He'll let you know, once Slaters get back to him - as they're trying to do it to a black one at the moment.

They actually tried with the black one first!
