Don and I saw one in the JY down here last year. I hadn't seen that location before then either.

EDIT: Here'* the pic I took that day, right after scoring the emblem.

Early production...I see them often enough. They didn't leave the emblem there ...about 1/2 way through the year..they changed.

Was it moved to the door panels because I've seen those emblems with "bonneville" on the side with the 'SE' :?:
