After some cockwomble stole my front growler badge I am struggling to source a replacement, anyone have the part number or a good source? The pin layout is different to even very similar year badges. The dual pins are in a vertical layout not horizontal like most of the badges.

 

If you mean the round one on the grille then there is only one part number for the 4.2 cars and that is C2P1594

 

As you are in the UK, try forum member Kevan of Growler Parts. He currently lists three available X150 grille badge options:

Many thanks to you both. Very helpful.

 

When this happened to me, I had to get both the growler emblem, and the mounting bezel, which are 2 separate parts. C2P4892 and C2P1594. The growler comes with double sided sticky to mount into the bezel, which bolts to the grille. You have to remove the bumper cover to bolt the assembly back on.

 

Thanks, I did indeed need the plinth, £54 delivered from britcar. I had already ordered the badge from adamesh at 50 delivered, but can be had for about 35 on growler parts. Its crazy how much it is for a replacement badge. I'm going to keep a look out on ebay for any cheap ones to pop up as I'm sure it wont be the last time its nicked. Anyone know what bolts the the plinth
needs?

 

I had to get creative with bolting it back on. I believe that the correct hardware for attaching it is a stamped sheet metal 'nut' that fits around the smooth posts. As I had neither the nuts or any idea of what I needed, I used the hole in the center of those posts to put a screw in, and a stack of tiny washers to take up the space between the screw head and the grille. Sorry, no pics as I'd have to pull the bumper cover off. In hindsight, I'd take that little plastic bezel/plinth/whatchamacallit to the parts house and find 2 stamped sheet metal nuts that will fit, as that would be the less complicated solution.

Sometimes I fix things with what I have on hand.

 

Similar retainer "speed" nuts are used on the 20" Selena wheels that were original equipment on my 2009 XKR Portfolio. Those wheels feature chrome overlays that fit on the middle spokes. Each overlay has two posts that go through the spoke and is secured with two of these retainer nuts:



Here's the Selena wheel. Enlarge it to see the overlays.

 

The Jaguar emblem departed my 2009 XKR and I when searching the parts suppliers I was uncertain of which part to order. To make this brief 007XKR was exactly correct but it is hard to figure this out when looking at parts diagrams. This is what my grill looks like:




The ornament badge C2P1594 didn't fill the space on my grill and the two posts on the back didn't align with the holes on my grill:



So I ordered emblem C2P4892 too. The chrome ring around the face of the bracket fills up the space on my grill nicely and the posts line up correctly. It even comes with the plate and nuts to secure it. This is what the two parts look like together:
