Hi gang,
My car had a 965 turbo script on it which I am replacing. I purchased a Carrara White one from BumperPlugs.com (shout out to Eric), but I'm unsure what the right positioning is.
It's pretty obvious it goes in the center from left to right, but what is the distance from the bottom edge of the deck to the bottom of the script?
Anybody got a ruler near their car and can HBO (help a brotha out )?
If you get stuck and really want the emblem placed in the exact position, try a Porsche dealership. Most will have templates that will assist you in placing the emblem in the most accurate position.
Scott, here are some basics from the Porsche files:
Position the logo with the dimensions -A and C- → Dimension: 92 mm and -B- → Dimension: 36 mm-1 mm on the rear lid and stick it on.
Not 100% clear from the German manuals, but this should give you a guide to use. Don't apply emblem until you are comfortable with the location - just use a piece of painter's tape to hold the back in place with backing sheet still intact after positioning as listed.

So is dimension "b" 35mm? Why word as 36mm - 1mm?
What am I missing here, not that 1mm amounts to any big deal....
So to follow up (because everyone likes pictures!), I got my new script today from Eric @ bumperplugs.com and installed it.
tools I used:
* 1 Orange Do-it-best tape measure with mm markings (not pictured)
* Blue Tape
* 1 Crayon (of any color, I chose blue)
First I marked with my handy dandy crayon 35mm up from the bottom of the spoiler. Using said blue crayon mark, I then used a piece of tape to mark the bottom of the turbo script.
Second, I marked the middle of decklid and decided that the left side of the tape would indicate the center.
Then, using our handy blue crayon, we measure the length of the script and mark the center
Then line up the center on the script with the center of the car, putting it above the tape line. Press firmly, and voila!
