02-03 "A" badge

I am looking to replace the trunk A badge on my trunk with a larger one (like that found on the 02-03). I found a 04-06 trunk A badge for sale online for a decent price, and was wondering if the size of that matched the 02-03 badge. If not, is it smaller or larger? Thanks.

You could just go to a salvage yard and "get it."

go to the dealer and look at the trunk lids- every year had a little different angle and shape- that will be the issue
2 holes in the trunk you are aware of already- thats the mount point for the A

if you want a bigger badge your best bet is the front "A" off just about any 02+ acura but just to tell you i have one and when i put in the back to see how it looks it way too big...

I don't believe the holes for the A line up if you go to the bigger 02-03 emblem.

I guess one way for it "to work" is to shave the plugs so they are flat with the back side of the emblem and use the adhesive to hold the emblem in place.

That's what I've done. I paid $20 for the emblem, might as well spend a few bucks, no?
