Dash emblem

[Wageslave]

My Bonneville has a perfect dash other than a missing emblem over the glove box. I bought a NOS emblem off of ebay, but it does not look like the remnants of the emblem that is there. The one that I bought is a lot like the ones on the Malibu and Monte Carlo, rectangular and adhesive backed.

The dash has a shaped piece of black plastic that sticks out that is about as wide but about a third of the height of the emblem above. It also seems to be mounted to the trim with two posts.

Does anybody happen to have a picture of what this style of emblem should look like?

Thanks

I'll snap a pic later, but that one looks like the one on mine (1985).

Cool, thank you. I will take a picture of the plastic piece when I get the chance, but it looks like the backing piece for a scripted chrome emblem if I had to guess.

I got a picture of the old emblem backing plate, and of the new emblem in place.

Oh well, at least it looks good now.

I took a similar emblem off of my GP dash and replaced it with a Malibu Classic emblem. It looks like it was made there.

I actually found a video of a car with this type of emblem on it. It is a silver emblem with silver lettering. It looks decent, but probably impossible to find.
