I ordered the red badges from my Honda dealer
front- 75700-S2A-000ZE, back- 75701-S2A-000ZE

I understand these are for '00-'01 models; has anyone installed these on an '02? Did they fit - are the holes in the same spots?

Thanks!

I ordered the same for mine... should be in tomorrow and according to the dealer it will fit and the two phongs thingies should fit the existing holes perfectly. Let me know how it turns out!

Really? I didn't know that Honda offered RED badges... I thought that they just had the factory one's and the Black chrome badges for front and rear. Kevin

IMHO, it only looks good on a white or black. it doesn't match the other colors well.

Somebody please post pics of the Honda 'RED' Factory badges when installed (close up please). Are they just like the front & rear black chrome badges, other than the color? Kevin

Pics

I took delivery of my 2002 black / full red three weeks ago and wanted the red emblems too. I got my friend in Tokyo to double check with the Honda dealers that they would fit the 2002 model. I'm not sure which model year emblems I was sent - however they are smaller than the 02 skeleton emblems and fit perfectly in the existing holes.

The rear skeleton emblems have two plastic prongs in the holes that need to be removed - just push them out. The red emblems fit easily into the holes without the plastic prongs as the two plastic parts on the red emblems are thicker than the skeleton ones. The hardest part is removing the gunk left from the old emblems!

Hope this helps

Here are some pic's of my badges, sorry they are not too great:





I think they work well on Silverstone as they carry the red interior theme onto the car

They fit just the same as the Black Chrome badges and because they are a smooth infilled design are nice and easy to wax around.

PS More pictures including close up in this thread

They are the authentic factory OEM Red H badges that go on the Type R's over in Europe/Japan. The same exact ones that MG Racing sells. I got them for $60 for the set (front and rear) from my local dealer.

They fit the 00 and 01 perfectly. The 02, the "footprint" of the badge is a bit smaller but the phongs fit exactly into the holes perfectly. You just gotta remove the glue stuff around it.

I'll post some pics when I get them.
