Default French mobile republican guard legion 1?

Hi,
Can anyone identify these sleeve/collar badges on this jacket. I am thinking French mobile republican guard, legion 1 but haven't been able to find a match. Thanks.

Hi Balian, it's probably The Mobile Gendarmerie GBGM (Groupement Blindé de la Gendarmerie Nationale) They used to use the tank insignia, best wishes Mike
