"CT4" Trunk Emblem Location

[RDATLTE]

Can someone please be so kind as to provide me with some measurements to assist me in installing a new "CT4" emblem on the trunk? The body shop left it off and sent me the emblem for me to re-install and I don't want to guess as to the exact location. Thanks!

That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid.

That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid.

On my car, the C is 9.5 cm from the edge of the trunk lid along the line shown in the photo (top of bumper edge). It is 2 cm from the bottom of the body line, just where the curve of the line starts. Both my Cadillac emblem and V emblem are 1.5 cm down from that body line, so it is lower by .5 cm than those.

Thank you so much!

If you want a truly OEM look, mount it ever so slightly crooked.

Don't go crazy with it. Do it juuuust enough that every once in a while it catches your eye and makes you stare it for a minute asking yourself, "Is that thing on crooked ...?"

And I thought I was the only one who noticed that subtly.
