help ID older Honda "5 speed" badge?
 
Looking for help IDing what has been described as an 1980s era Honda badge - I can't figure out how to post pictures but below is link to ebay auction.

Any ideas? There is a part number on the back that resembles ~'83 Honda 5-speed emblems (87306-SA0-660) but nothing I have ever seen of that era looks like this (they all have black unpainted background). I don't have the emblem with me but the part number is 87306-SA I believe.

yes, I'm thinking of putting it on my '13 Fit and would like to know what car it is from and where Honda originally placed it on the car :)

From perusing google images I've come across the 5 speed emblem they used on gen2 civics and gen1 preludes & accords (around '83) and they're all on black background rather than silver painted background. I also haven't found a picture of a 5 speed emblem on gen3 civics that I know had a 5 speed).

Thoughts?
Pat

Thanks cjecpa - yeah, that is what I was referring to as the gen2 civic (and just about any other Honda of that era ~1983) 5 speed emblem - chrome on black background but mine is painted silver in background. I was thinking maybe up-market Prelude or Accord but nothing I've found. There is a funky cool older 5 speed emblem with a large red 5 that you find on civics and accords from the late 70s.

Usually would a upgrade from a 4 speed manual that was standard.

That's the one! (With a crack pipe ebay price!). If I were doing the red JDM badges that might go well... but not willing to pry the OEM one off just yet.
