Yes, that would be why I'm posting this in the 03-06 Sedan page . I have an 05 G35x (if that makes a difference).
And the problem is that some of the emblems I'm finding don't have flat backs and would be difficult to use adhesive with (see http://www.ebay.com/itm/171017060356...84.m1423.l2649). Although, the more I think about it, the more I think the Ratsun emblem looks dumb. I could just use an adhesive emblem to cover the holes, but I would need to make sure it completely covers the holes. So, are the holes at the very edge of the emblem (4.25" apart) or somewhere in between?
It would probably be easy for me to measure the distance between the two rivets, but I just don't want to take of the trunk lining until I have everything ready to go on my car.

Yeah, I was just thinking of that...
Still, the distance between the two holes matters, because if they're at the edges of the emblem, I'll need something bigger than a 3" diameter circle. It would suck going through all of this work just to have two holes still left one either side of my replacement emblem.

Lol not sure if serious but my instinct tells me there's some sarcasm going on in your statement sir.
Edit: Plus, a dual filament LED is physically impossible I would assume. Meaning I'd be stuck with a falsely advertised 7440 which, for all intents and purposes is what I have in there now. The filament for the city light burned out but my turn signal still works.

Hey does anyone know what these are:
If you look closely beside the "P" there are small letters "M" and "S". I figured out that the "M" comes on when you switch the tiptronic into manual mode. The "S" however, I've yet to figure out. I'm gonna take a wild guess that it stands for sport and there is a way to put my car into sport mode but I just can't figure out how. I have an '04 sedan with sport package.

I'm pretty sure its the second gen and newer that have it where when you initially switch into the manumatic mode it displays an S and still auto shifts everything, but once you decide to manually shift it becomes an M and is dependent on you.
When you slide into manumatic and dont touch anything else it just goes straight to the M?
I know my '06X just goes into an M, but it isnt a sport and id have to take a look if the display has those letters ghosted in as well.

Thinking that the "S" stands for "Sport" is a common misconception. The "S" actually stands for "Sexy". To turn on the light, wait till it's dark out, pull off your pants, play this song
