    Are the repop GS emblems for a 69 q-panel the same as the 70-72 GS fender emblems? Year One has the same part # for both as does CARS but they say mounting studs may be different than originals. Anybody know what that means? I wanted to order some new ones for my vert but not if I have to drill different holes.

    Yes, the fender/quarter GS emblems are the same 67-72

    What about the mounting studs? Are there 2 or 3 studs on the repops?

    Not true.....completely. The outside appearance is the same, but the 69's only have 2 studs. The 70-72 will have a center locating stud along with the two outer mounting studs.

    Someone coreect ME if I'm wrong.

    Thanks.
    If I have to grind off the center stud I'm OK with that as long as the other two line up.

    Todd, that's exactly what I did with mine. I used fender emblems too. They look and worked great.

    Thanks, Ken. Learn something new everyday. Sometimes it's actually something worthwhile! (like today!) :TU:

    I think the only ones that are produced now have three studs. Not a big deal. Nothing a cutoff wheel won't fix. :beer

    Believe it or not, Poston had the correct ones with 2 studs. They were not long enough. Luckily I had an NOS set of 70-72 fender emblems and cut off the center stud.
