Default 69 Yenko Camaro Badging Location

Bought a tribute but missing the Camaro and Yenko badging on both fenders and on the rear panel. Have the badges but need help identifying the specific location for the badges.

The tail panel is easy, Yenko removed the Bowtie badge leaving two holes. They used the left hole for the right pin of the Yenko badge, and drilled for the left pin. For the 427 badge, they did just the opposite, using the right hole in the tail panel for the left pin, and drilled for the right pin. The two badges are offset vertically, because the bowtie badge pins were offset.

I don't think here was not a single location for the fender mounted Yenko badges. Remember that stripes and badges were installed by Yenko's high school aged daughter, and her friends, so there is some measurable variance from car to car. Before I located mine for my tribute car, I measured a bunch at one of the Super Car Reunions, and then picked a location in between the extremes. I cut a pattern of the Yenko badge from a cereal box, and adjusted until I liked it. I can measure mine, and let you know what I did, but that's not "the final word."
