          My 80 MNS has posts. If yours are broken then maybe some trim adhesive or the tape.

                  Mine don't have REMOVABLE posts, but I can see the permanent posts on the back side of the side cover. It's like they were pressed in and melted into place at the factory.

                      I think the MMS emblems were glued, below is a pic of a NOS emblem and you can see the stencil cut glue layer lying behind the emblem.
