Sorry guys me again... I bought the clips for the badges from Rare Spares and they seem a waste of time I tried opening one up to fit into badge and end broke off... Any help would be appreciated

I found the same  , the clips they sell are not the right ones . ( I have two set at home . both the same ? )

I made my own , which involved drilling holes inside the boot that a 10mm x 1/4 inch socket fitted through and made the fitting out of flat plate and welded a small dome head bolt to . once fitted in the back of the badge you can slide it into the right location then fit a lock tight nut.

maybe not the right way but it worked for me.

I'm really suprised that the clips aren't working for you. Mine worked first time and were easy to install. Have you spoken to Rares? Obviously something isn't right.  :-\
Cheers, Ken

No I haven't... But they just didn't fit in so I thought the lugs needed to be opened that's when one of the ends broke.... Very frustrating...
