Nice one - where do you get the new badges from? Have a black D3 which would benefit from this treatment.

If I could just get the dealer sticker off as well we're all set.....

Cheers

Here is the link to the e-bay auction I bought the badges for the wheels and steering wheel from...

Click me

Although the auction is ended, it is saying there some sets left. I cheekily asked for 5 for the same price, and got them Thumbs Up

As for the front and rear badges - got them from my local stealer - £4 each plus VAT

Must admit, I was going to get them from e-bay, and thought I would ring local stealers out of curiosity. and for the badges without the black plastic, quoted £4 + VAT, so went straight round before they changed their minds.

I thought Nick at Yeovil was doing a deal on these???
My Mrs gave me such a funny look when I told her I was considering doing the same to my D3. Maybe when she's not looking.

D4 HSE 2012 Like a second wife, more expensive but goes better! I almost cried this time!
D3 HSE 2006 (Almost 8 years together, true love)

Think Nick has left the country, either that or he's laying low,
or been fired for selling stuff too cheap [or spending too much company time on disco3.co.uk].
Sent him a pm a few days ago and not heard a pipsqueek!

2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 S Manual Buckingham BlueDiscovery 3

I've got the front and rear badges to put on and the black and silver wheel centres, but I went and ruined it all by getting the A frame and driving lamps put on with the two annoying little green and gold badges winking out at me every time I look.

Has anyone found a suitable alternative to replace them ?

I thought about just painting them out in black with some hammerite or something like that if theres no other options. I don't think I would like to change everything else and just leave the driving lamp badges.

Suppose I'll need to sort the steering wheel badge as well.

The back one I got off with a little screw driver, however the front one is a bit more tricky, so I drilled a hole through it and then pulled it off from the middle, as a screw driver may easily damage the front plastic grill Wink
