    Is the Toyota sombrero logo emblem on the Prius the same one as on any other Toyota models? I want to pick one up on eBay.

    you'll have to check the size and shape. They're not all of the same size (though chances are, the bigger ones will be on the SUVs and the smaller ones on the cars)

    If someone who has removed theirs could lend me one (or both if they are different) it would help a lot. They guy who is willing to make Starfleet logos to replace them needs them for dimensions, etc. I am willing to pay shipment both ways, as well as award you the Starfleet Order of the Magnetic Grey Tribble.

    I haven't removed and sent him mine, since I am still active in the car show circuit.

    Doc Willie,

    I've got a set, and I'd love to help you.

    I'm not looking for a Starfleet emblem. I would be interested a flat
    correctly shaped thin metal plate with the positioning studs that I could
    paint to match my Amapola.

    PM me and we can exchange transponder coordinates. :p

    I'm sending the hood and lift gate Circle-T badges to Doc Willie. I
    emphasize badges on purpose.

    Doc Willie,

    Heads Up !

    In putting the package together, I found much to my dismay that the two
    badges are slightly different sizes, about 1/8 inch different in width and
    height. I never knew this before. ( No, I don't know which goes where!)

    This could prove to be a real a pain in the neck... or lower.

    Okay, good, someone else is doing that; saves me from having to
    take apart my funny hat and send him my own emblems.

    I was afraid of something like that. And it is something that would only show up by having them in hand. Something else for the fabricator to deal with.
