Default Emblems for an 81

With C3 emblems from other years fit on an 1981? Will the mounting holes match up?

'80 emblems will work, but they have chrome trim on them., '81 emblems have black trim.

Find out what other c3 era emblems will fit on my 81. Not a fan of the 81 emblem and want to replace it.

Pretty much any of the C3 emblems other than the 81, 80 (nearly identical to 81) or the 78 (dated with the anniversary reference).
