S80: Body - Placing and spacing of rear V-O-L-V-O badge letters please

Arnold Layne · Sep 13th, 2018, 21:26

Hello,

I've bought new VOLVO letters for the rear of my S80 boot. Mine were placed close together, but I've taken them off (and in the course lost one!

).

Please can someone take 30 seconds and post some instructions for me on where to place the new ones, in the newer style, which is further apart from each other?

Ideally I'd like to know how high from the bottom edge of the boot (or how low from the top); How far in from the left does the first "V" go, and then how many cm's apart are each of the following letters.

Thank you kindly, in advance.

Use a stock photo from google.... looks like the V and the O line up with the ends of the number plate and about 15mm above the crease

There is a template giving measurements for placement. I saw it somewhere.

Or you can buy one of these, since you are missing a letter anyway. Putting new tape on the old letters isn`t much fun by the way
