Default Need help on Placement of rear bB badge

Does anyone know the specific measurements to where the rear " bB " badge is placed? Does it go over the exactly the same location the " xB " badge sits on? I just want to know if there's a particular spot before I remove the xB and place the bB badge. I didn't want it to sit too high or sit to low from where it's suppose to go. Any help is appreciated. :D

Why not glue some magnets on it

http://www.wondermagnets.com

and attach it magnetically? Then you can change its position at your slightest whim!

****Disclaimer: I am not responsible for below information being accurate and in no way say that these dimensions are correct. They are based on a scaling method and subject to error. They do however give you a good idea of the placement of the rear bB emblem.***





All dimensions are in inches. The dimensions on the outer edge of the drawings are what I have calculated to be the distance to locate the emblem on a hatch.
Note the difference between the distance from the edge of the bB emblem to the edge of the hatch varies about a 1/4 inch between the two scalings, so only use these as a guide line.

xB Nutt's looks good. this is out of the manual for the xB plate location:

2.429" from the right edge of the hatch and 6.468" up from the bottom of the hatch. don't ask me why I looked that up, but I did.
frankly, 2.5" up and 2.5" over should do it, but hey, that's your little red wagon.

This thread is probably old, hence the out of date pictures. but I wanted to ask if xB Nutt could repost the pictures that were posted or if you could contact me directly through PM so I could get some info on the bB placement.

I was trying to find some dimensions from a Japanese factory service manual but of course I don't have one of those just lying around.

I am researching the exact placement measurements for the Japanese bB so I can turn it all into a DIY article that can be posted and referenced.

Thanks for your time!
