Default Are the grill and tailgate emblems the same on '06 and up Rangers?

I notice a LOT of sellers of these large style emblems. In my research, it appears that both the tailgate and front grill emblems use 3 mounting posts, but the grill emblem is held in place by sheet metal clips and the rear emblem is held in place with adhesive.

Am I right? Are the two interchangeable?

Thanks. Unfortunately when I try to look up these parts using parts.ford.com, it is not very helpful in understanding which is which.

Is F2TZ-9842528-A the rear tailgate?

and F81Z-8213-AB the front grill?

I'm only guessing at these based on cross-referencing those part numbers with Google searches...

Thanks again.

haha. OK thanks for the help. I was just at the Ford dealer for some other stuff. Guess I'll head back over there and ask the parts guy.

I was hoping to find an aftermarket black version (I'd prefer OEM Ford, but AFAIK there's no such option)...

Looks like AA8Z-9942528-A is the tailgate one, according to the local parts guy.
