    Pretty sure there are no holes behind. Heat it up before removing as this helps seperate the glue.

    Certainly no holes behind the front one, but I thought there was locator holes in the tailgate- but the badge is only stuck on, no bolts


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    There are holes behind both. On the Mini One/Cooper bonnets there are 2 holes at the front and the back
