So we still have no "official" factory placement of the VVT-i emblem on the side of a Yaris?

Well, Australian Yaris' do, but they're not the VVT-i badges, they're the 'VVT-i' stickers (for the 1.3L Yaris) or '1.5 VVT-i' (if you have the 1.5L Yaris) under the side marker.

Not sure if you'd even "see" a sticker on a meteorite metallic paint like mine. The sticker looks silver, almost like the color of my car.

The pics I see show it under the turn signal. I am not sure if the picture is of someone's custom car, or the factory default.

Here's a picture from a auto review site.
Clearly, the logo is under the turn signal (and in the "i" is in SILVER).

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but I was browsing the Taiwan Toyota site, and they have the 'VVT-i' badges off the side of the markers (where D4-D badges are) on the Yaris. So I'm going to say that this is the official placement for the badges, where as stickers go under the side markers.

Hi thanks actually I still haven't sticked them so I got 4 emblems laying around waiting for placement D4-D is nice, It's similar to where the HYBRID goes in the Camry so more likely Toyota seems to like it there but under the side marker also is nice UFF! What do I do now??

I did mine in Genuine Toyota VVT-i all chrome decals (no red "i" in the VVT-i), and I placed it where Bengolf2 has it, directly under the turn sginals. It looks awesome.

One recommendation when placing the decals; remove the side markers and there beneath them on the body of the car is 2 dots indicating the vertial center line of the turn signal. You can then use some painter's tape to tape downwards through the 2 dots, and then horizontally across to get a 90 degree line with the vertical axis. You can also line up the the center of each individual decal to the taped vertical centre line. The center of the decal occurs on righthand portion of the second "V", a few millimetres from the join with the "T".
