Boot Badge fitting 107 ???

[myredsl]

The star badge on the centre of the boot lid of my 1988 300sl appears to have 3 fixing points,1 centre and 2 at the 5 and 7 o`clock positions,they also appear to have screw threads but with some sort of plastic sheath pushed onto them! This is all done with morrors and a cricked neck,LOL!

I have bought a NOS badge (part No.A 107 758 0158) which has a single thread fitting.Can anyone tell me which is correct? I dont want to remove the existing one,although it is damaged, to find I cant put the new one on.
Thanks

The ones with a plastic insert are just a push fit, and possibly a nut in the center, I will try and check to be sure

Hi Malcolm,

Sorry to pester you but did you glean anymore info about the correct fitting for the boot star badge on `88 107?

Thanks

No my info does not go back that far but in this link you can see that there is one nut in the centre, and if there are locating pegs, the badge is just a push fit into these
