Don't the Volkswagen or 1300 emblems on the rear hood use the same
method on '66 and up cars?
I know I've attached quite a few of these with dabs of silicon sealer on
the inside posts.

Nope. Hood emblem takes three tiny polyethylene grommets of the same shape,
but clear flexy plastic, snap-fit into a 5.5 mm hole. Don't believe they exist
anywhere else on the car. Earlier cars just had rubber washers and pushnuts,
but they leaked and rusted (my '61 f'rinstance).
Isn't this what you are referring to?

Mine is a stock 72 and it does indeed have the raised area for the emblem.

Bert - have you got a copy of Mid-America Motorworks' catalog? Maybe you can
look through there and look at the aftermarket emblems from different years to
find the correct one? A lot of time they have all kinds of measurements listed
for different items or at least the years.
