Toyota emblem badges - plastic bungs

[swiftstu]

Hi, Strange question.  I need a front and rear Toyota emblem.  On the part schematic there seems to be some little plastic grommit things with part numbers. 

What are they please, and do they come with the emblems?  Or do I have to order those separately?  Toyota couldn't tell me.

Thanks

Stuart

Those plastic caps (actually I think they were squeeze open metal clasps)  were for the original emblems that has two prongs for the front and three for the rear Toyota bull horn badges.

Those badges, in chrome and gold disappeared a long time ago to be replaced by stick on plastic efforts. I've spend £hundreds on sourcing gold badges (the original pronged variety) ready for if my car ever has fresh paint. These are near impossible to find now, hence my spending £250 on one NOS gold badge and £100 for another in 2016. So it's spend a fortune or just go for the £15 or so black, chrome, grey sticky backed plastic badges or more rarely these days the gold stick on efforts. Buy a few if you can as they don't weather well and need changing every few years as they can wear and fade quite badly.

Toyota haven't sold the original pronged badges for around 10 years.

Funilly enough I’ve literally just today ordered badges and the clips that are being mentioned above. I take it I don’t need them then? If they’re sticky now, is it worth getting the holes filled up? Or is there one prong as a guide?

They are adhesive but the prongs locate into the holes

Thanks for the info.  So I have just bought some Toyota (black) badges and they appear to have the locator prongs on the back.  They just seat in and the badge is adhesive backed?  

I suppose I'll get to see in 3-5 business days, but good to know in advance.

Hopefully they are Supra specific as the front badge is a good amount smaller than other vehicle model Toyota bull horn badges. When I was looking to source a badge set i bought many too large Supra badges along the way. Seeing the badges are all plastic these days if you find it is oversized its an easy snip to remove any locators, the only problem comes if the badge is too big you may find it hard to centre it and completely cover the original badge holes.
