Tank Emblem Dimension? - JF Coastal_imp - 02-03-2016
Hey Guys,
I'm at the office right now. Anyone have a diameter dimension of our tank emblem ?
I was about ready to order this set? Just thought I'd ask here first. Any help would be much appreciated.

My micrometer reads 61.80mm or 2.433 in.

Thanks for the quick reply. Looks like the dimensions don't match up. Oh well, thought it might be a nice quick little mod.

Crickey! Where did you get one like that? Mine can't read at all.

We have all the cool stuff in the US. You have all the dangerous animals there. At least, that's what the TV shows say!

Hey JF, The tank badges are glued on. The badges in the picture you posted have holes, like they are meant to be screwed on.

I saw that Pete. I appreciate the heads up anyways. I'll attempt to attach in such a way that it looks natural. If not possible, I'll put the originals back on.
I don't have the cash to repaint right now, so i'm trying another route.
Thanks for the heads up though !!!

One thing that can be done is to cut off screw heads and glue them in the holes. Done nicely, it would look like they are screwed on.

Popgun, that's exactly the route that I was going to go. I'll let you know how it turns out.

The part numbers for the correct badges are:
64503-MFL-000 for the right side
64508-MFL-000 for the left side.
Price is about $22 each.
