Australian Fiat Ritmo Badges for UK Bravos

Hey guys in light of the swap Bravo for Ritmo badges in the other thread today when I went to get my cars first check up (done 1400k's in 1 week) I thought i'd ask the guy at the counter about the price for a replacement badge...

The guy quoted me $70AUD for a new rear Ritmo badge. So if anyone wants one post up perhaps we could organize something.

On a side note I found out that the only reason sat nav isnt available here in Australia for the Ritmos is because it costs $4k to get the unit.. and Fiat Australia decided that it pushed the price of the car too high so they dont import them or offer them for the vehicles which sux cause i would have paid $4k for it if i had the option.

$4k for Satnav is ridiculous. You can buy a good portable unit from Garmin/TomTom/Navman for heaps less.

Yeh $4k is a bit much but the unit wont effect blue&me which works flawlessly in my car and is the one feature i wouldnt sacrifice.

Wonder if i could find a second hand one somewhere?

Yeah, but an external unit shouldn't effect Blue&Me either.

You would probably be hard pressed to find a second hand unit given the model is so new. Plus you would have to find out what is involved to fit it and whether your car is equipped to take the factory unit. Usually something like an inbuild SatNav is a factory ordered option.
