Here is where you can get them: It is from a 2006 Civic Hybrid. You can go to estore.honda.com and order it. Once you put the car info in, look under, parts, interior / bumper, emblems and caution labels. The emblem costs $21.55.

You can either have it shipped to you or pick it up at your Honda dealer.

Errett I found it. I used a VIN from eBay to fill out the car info quicker: JHMFA36276S012062. It says "EMBLEM, RR. (HYBRID), $21.55". I have the H3. I am wondering if your "H2" emblem is wider than the "H3" emblem. Do you know how long your "H2" emblem is? I really like how it looks on your SUT.

I did an eBay search for Hybrid vehicles. From here I started looking at the various photos of the vehicles for sale. There was not a huge selection of hybrids for sale, but here is some info I got out of the effort.

The emblem that you used is the 2006, but I noticed it was a different version in previous years.

The emblem for the 2005 Honda Accord (http://images2.auction123.com/sizequalitypredef/4fa2940d-9e23-44e8-8a88-0742027478df/JHMCN36435C015137/04.jpg?webimage001m)
looks like it is all silver and smaller than the Civic. It was also a few dollars cheaper using that really nice Honda parts site.


2005 Chevy Silverado 1500 that looks like silver on black:

2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 that is kind of differnent (and says GM):

I can measure the H2 emblem for you, but the SUT above is ASTAR's, not mine. I have the hybrid logo on the back of my 06 SUV as seen in the following thread.

I just put the hybrid emblem on the back of the SUV, I don't have it on the doors.

I think the problem with the Synergy drive is the weight of all the batteries! :giggling:

Do you guys watch Shark on CBS? There was a quote a few weeks ago made about the size of a car and James Woods character said, "Think of it as 8 Prius welded together." I think that is how I shall think of my H2 from now on.

I like that one a lot. Maybe I can order it from the Saturn dealership, and find a way to integrate it with the H2 emblem. Like H2ybrid.

The H2 emblem is about 5 1/4" wide and the HYBRID emblem I used is about 6 1/4" wide.
