Hi
I have always thought that the unhyphened badges of, at least, MkIIs and 
MkIIIs, have been aftermarket , but maybe I'm mistaken. I have a worned 
out original badge on my MkII, with a hyphen, and a brand new unhyphened 
badge on the shelf. I hesitate to replace it, for origanality sakes. I'm 
not a 100 percent for originality, I have several things on my car that 
is not original, but I'm serious when it comes to badges.
