Default Bigger T5 badge?

Hmmm... anyone know the part number for the bigger T5 badges that later S40s seem to have? I think all of the P3 models have this bigger badge as well.

I look on ebay and can only seem to find the original smaller T5 badges.

I want a big badge!

Mine (2008):



Random S40 (2012):

Remove the T5 badge and fit a Nurburgring sticker, everyone will know you mean business then

This kind of styling is the worst.

People who slap a Nurburgring sticker on the back of their diesel Vauxhall Astra really irritate me.

Ha ha my suggestion was tongue in cheek, I wondered what you'd say and you're right I hate them too.

Although according to my local MacDonalds Car Park Tuning House, a carefully placed Nurburgring sticker definitely adds 50bhp to a 1.2 Vauxhall Corsa.

If you order a new one from Volvo you'll get the larger version. I did that to my T5 when I had it.
