I glued the badges onto my cf and after a few years, i lost one. So, i might actually use proper clips, if i can find some. They are nothing special, typical cast badges with round pins that go through the body which had the normal sort of star washer things pushed over the pins.
I cant find any though as i don't know what they are called! I'm sure they must be easy to find, but I'm struggling. Anyone know?

They are just called star washers. Or push-on star washers if you’re searching eBay.

I've used a company called bresco, they seem to specialise in all clip types

What you need is these, they are self cutting onto the pin and have a lump of soft stuff in the back of the nut to seal the hole, there are different diameters of badge pin though

Minimum of 2, maximum of 6. I have one badge to fit which needs 2, there are two more badges on the van which are just glued so if i could find 6 id put clips on them as extra security.

Do you know anywhere i can order these GM nuts? If not ill order the generic ones without the nice seal. Thanks.

How many do you need? I will check and see how many I have left Anywhere between 2 and 10 😂 There are 5 badges, all use 2. I bonded all the badges on and one fell off. I have a replacement but am now a little wary of bonding them on. If i ordered a pack id put 2 on each badge, if you only have one or two spare id just put one on each wing badge to act as a safety harness incase the glue fails again. If the GM ones you have are hard to find and you would rather keep what you have ill just order the ones without the rubber seal online. Thanks.
