Default Grenadier Guards bedplate badge

This Grenadier Guards bedplate is missing its badge which appears to have been the same size as the cap badge. I have several lugged Grenadier Guards cap badges and although the lugs are not all the same distance apart, none are the same distance apart as the holes in the plate. Were badges specially made for bed plates or were regular badges adapted for use on bedplates?

It would make sense to use existing cap badges and put the holes in the bedplate to accommodate an exist badge rather than put the holes in the bedplate and alter the badge to fit.

Either way does anyone have a GG cap badge with narrowly spaced lugs that might fit?
