Grille Badge Standardized Location

[Headlight]

We need a standard location for the TDR Grille badge. I suggest the top left corner of the grille.
Open for suggestions? (Be nice!)
It would be nice if you saw a Dodge Diesel, glance to a specific area, no emblem!, let this person know about TDR!
What do you think?

[Teacher]

Great idea.
By top left corner do you mean top left corner looking at the front of the truck, or the driver's side????
I vote for on the driver's side #ad

I think I saw someone with either a badge or a sticker on the back of there driver side mirror. We were on the freeway, and I thought it looked ok and it was real clear they were members.

Mine is mounted on the upper left (driver's) side. Hopefully you guys will follow that thought, so I don't have go out and move it.

Doc Tinker,
Do you have a picture?

------------------

[TowPro]

A lot of us run "cold fronts" or some kind of cover in the winter. Mine snaps into the honeycomb, the badge would be in the way.

 

[BigBadDodge]

I don't think it will fit any where on a grill with the Sweeth Tooth insert either.

 

[Doc Tinker]

Please excuse the dirty truck. I haven't been able to wash it (or drive it) for several weeks. We just had a rain, so I thought it would be a good time to take a shot. The truck seems to look cleaner when wet. #ad

Drivers side grill sounds great. I have an aftermarket grill though. Will need to see how to mount it to it.

 

[DieselDoghouse]

Driver's side top panel sounds good, alternately, if you run cold fronts or lund screens (I do) how about into the center of the cross-bars on the grill- still very visible!

 

[Headlight]

Top left corner of the grille seems to have the most votes. Mine is mounted like Doc Tinkers,
Hey Robert Patton! How about a high quality window decal, like the grille badge.
This could be displayed in the upper left corner (drivers side) of the rear window, or camper shell, etc. Coming or going we would know a TDR member. (Decal at cost?)

I vote for Docs location... mine is there on a sport model and looks OK. On the last tuck I used the center of the cross bars, but that didn't work on the sport. I ordered 2 new ones that will go on the cab behind the side window.

The only minus I see about using the upper area of the grille (driver side or passenger side) is on the '99+ Sports... the honeycomb grille is so deeply inset, coupled with the fact that the top, peripheral portion of the grille protrudes out over this area in a sloping fashion... I'm just wondering whether it might tend to be lost in that location????

..... just thought I'd bring it up

 

[B. Gill]

i would go with whatever we all decide but yes would be nice to have it in the same place.
i would like the top left hand corner.
come on every one lets vote #ad
