Onyx.... What badge type did you have??? Do you have a R33 ??? I know that the series1 R33's have two different rear boot badges/locks, there is a silver and black badge found on the 92/93's and then it changes to the Pewter ( Dull metal ) look on the later 94/95 models.

When my R33 was badged at the back I looked around and found just about the only pewter styled badge in Perth at a wrecker.

Basically if yours is an R33, if you have a silver and black style badge you should find one at a local wrecker dead easy, if its the pewter type then you will have a hard time finding one but its still worth looking around. If you aint got a R33 try the local Jap wreckers anyways becauseyou never know :(

I bought mine for about $80 from memory then with a bit of fiddling took the badge portion from the lock and transferred it to my old lock ( If you have a look at the back you can understand the badge is just clipped in to the lock which can be removed )

If you have troubles finding one send me a PM to remind me and I will dig up the details of where I sourced mine from :D

Well that was supposed to be a quick response but I appear to have dribbled on so I will leave it as that.... let us know how you go :P

The only thing I can think of is that it must be younger kids that take them for souvinears or to impress there friends.... Once they have pulled the badge of the back it actually breaks it. Basically once they have been pulled off you can't use them as a badge/ lock cover anymore.....

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
