My front badge has always been a bit loose on the grill. Took a look at an original old TC body the other day and it had the badge mounted as per the attached photo. Mine does not seem to want to fit like that. How should the mount?
 
Well l haven't replaced mine yet after some work on the front a few years back but as l recall, the metal frames locate the two grills & the badge posts fit through the frame with self-cutting spire nuts to hold them tight.
 
In my car the steel frames ties the 2 parts of the grill with the vertical rods. Then the badge simply fits on the front frame. I am not at all sure if it was supposed to be like this, but at least it makes sense.
 
Makes sense that the tabs are on the outside and are used to align the two halves of the grill. I'll try again
