 it.  The 1600 badge is in the rear, right-hand corner between the aluminum
 trim and the trunklid.  I can't find any holes that the roundel should
 mount in; apparently they have been filled.  Sorry to bombard the list with
 such a stupid question, though I can't seem to find a definitive answer.
 
 Thanks in advance, >>

I'd look in lots of photos from dealer sales literature and other 
pics....maybe pics of cars in the Roundel, etc. where you can see the rear 
side of the car.  Also, maybe another knid sole with a similar car will make 
you a template from paper to overlay on your panel so you can match the 
mounting holes.  Your rear panel has obviously been replaced. If the holes 
were filled in, you could still find them from the insied of the boot 
(trunk).  Also, I believe there are BMW books otu there with dimensions for 
mounting emblems, etc. on the body skin.

Good luck,
