Default wearing of RSF/RHF collar genades

A question: How should the collar grenades of Royal Scots Fusiliers and Royal Highland Fusiliers be displayed (to conform with wearing on uniform) - vertical, horizontal or at 45degree angle?

I'm no authority but I think it depends on the type of uniform and time period being worn, No 1 dress Horizontal, service dress vertical etc

Id agree with Steve.
Dependant on which dress they are worn on.

Fine, but how should they be displayed in a frame along with other badges?

Again, would it be correct to have the device in the ball of the grenade to appear askew? Or do collar badges exist with the device applied accordingly when grenades are not worn upright?
