    Securing Grill Badge?

    Did a search and couldn't find anything relevant. This may be a dumb question but how are people securing their grill badges, specifically the ones with just holes on the sides? Do they use two sided tape (can't see it on account of theft), use bolts/nuts through the existing holes (mine are so tiny I would have to drill them out larger) or glue/epoxy bolts onto the back of the badge and secure it with a washer and nut?
    Thanks for any input.

    I've been putting a little felt on the back to keep the badge from grinding into my grill. I then use long screws with some large diameter washers and a little loctite to keep them from rattling loose. You don't want to tighten too much as you'll compress the grill and end up bending the screen on the back side.

    The smaller holes require either drilling (as you mentioned) or SMALL screws (probably like an M1).
    You can find kits on ebay or some of the badge selling sites.

    Thanks Kent. Never thought to look on e-bay. It's true, you can purchase anything on e-bay.
