VW Boot Badge

[V2 FAN]

Hey All

Quick question.

I have removed the silver plastic VW boot badge from my car (09 Model Mk5) as it had a small crack which annoyed me 
Just called the stealers and they have said that the badge cant be sold separately as it forms part of the boot handle 

The plastic badge shows a part number of 3C5827469 which I believe is the part number for the complete assembly 

Has anyone been able to source only the badge and not the complete mechanism? the badge simply clicks into the mechanism and is not stuck on.

Thanks in advance

Secondhand is best bet otherwise.
I sold complete unit for 40 quid last week.
Try ebay???

Thanks mate

I just found it strange that they expect to sell a whole unit when the badge is detachable especially seeing that these were desirable at one point for theft.

Ebay it is

Hi mate

I was looking at Part Number 5K0853630B ULM which I think is the Mk6 Badge
They both look the same and both measure 110mm, I've just ordered one from VW as the car is booked in for a service so fingers crossed this could fit

Let us know if it does fit. I've got a bit of the dreaded white worm on mine and fancy a change.

Nope it don't fit, despite both being 3D there is a very very small unnoticeable bevel to the badge which causes it to pop off. Both are the same size with the same clips it's just the bevel that causes it not to fit.

Unbelievable

Thanks for the update.... Damn!
Have to put up with the bit of white worm till I can find a decent Mk5 badge at a reasonable price .....

Cheers! If you get it off in one piece and it's white worm free - I'm definitely interested.

You need a complete boot lock assembly mate...
Yours is the earlier boot lock
