I just found one at a swap meet in detroit, I thought by chance I would take a spare I had with me just in case so I could match #'s or size if I found one and the one I found was packaged for a grand prix (not oem boxed) but it was a perfect match and in NOS condition for $20 so I'm not sure but maybe PMD used this emblem on more than one model. Good luck, Ive been searching for 2 yrs.

The GM PN that is in the original GM parts book is PN 493693. I only saw a fit for the 74 x body, 75 x body and 75 Astre. My book only includes 73-75, but there were no other matches in that time frame for Pontiac.
The part number may have updated later in the years....hopefully, I have given you a few more places to look...

The part # on the arrowhead I have in my hand is # 484314, this is the # off an original front nose piece and the # off the piece I bought at the swap meet, the package that it was marked was a 1972 GP. I'm not saying that it wasn't mismarked, I'm just pointing out that it is possible to find these if you look hard enough. Take an old emblem to some swap meets and you might get lucky. I did!!!!!

I hear you Sprintfrk73....I took the sail panel arrows to a swap one time and learned that the red insert from a firebird grill arrowhead was the same. I poped it out and glued it into my sail panel emblem, and bang...it looked like new!

Found out the person who bought my '74 GTO, sold it to someone else. I will have a bunch of NOS parts to find out where they're stashed and mark for sale.
