Thanks much Tony,
I do have the diagram you sent. I've measured three non- S model Boxsters still with their original rear "Boxster" logo and the "Y" dimension from measuring them is 50mm instead of the 45mm as shown on the diagram. I feel fairly certain the 45mm on the diagram is a misprint. I also have another factory Porsche workshop manual stating the "Boxster" emblem dimension "Y" is 55mm for a "S" model. Also according to that same diagram the "S" letter emblem is app. 5mm lower being measured at 50.4mm from the bottom edge of the rear lid. Before attaching the emblems to the rear deck lid I would like to get the dimension from someone with a Boxster S (2000-2004) still with the original emblem that would tell me what the measurement is from the bottom of the rear deck lid to the bottom of the "Boxster" emblem. The lastest diagram shows 55mm but I need to be absolutely sure before attaching it to the lid. I can figure the rest out from there. Thanks much!

As typical, the lower letter 'B' was broken on mine when I purchased it.
What was worse is they tried to super glue it, leaving residue on the paint.
While I purchased another black Boxster emblem, I couldn't bring myself to install it. Only to have it happen again..
I opted for the Panamera 'PORSCHE' instead. So I cannot provide my stock measurements.

My car is an unmolested, bone stock 2000 S, and the dimension in question is 55mm.
