@RaymondUrias 7 лет назад

Exactly what +Brian Richman said. If you buy a new grille then you can swap the star for the black one. OR remove the star and wrap it with vinyl

@berniecruz2378 6 лет назад

Hi Raymond, just wanted to give an update... I FINALLY got my illuminated star on my 2103 W204 C250! YEA!!! However, I had a friend works at a MB dealership and he hooked up my Star in a better and easier way which works better with all the automation of the lights on the car... which was, he ran the connection cable to the fuse box in the engine compartment and just plugged the cable wires under a specific fuse. So NO WIRE SPLICING WAS NEEDED! :D This would probably be better to show everyone instead. Much easier and quicker installation too! :D I'll take a picture and posted to show where my star is connected up, tomorrow.

@RaymondUrias 6 лет назад

Bernie Cruz That's awesome, so he used an add a fuse? Which fuse did he tap?

@berniecruz2378 6 лет назад

No added fuse. Used an existing fuse already in place. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow and show you.

@dcharizard91 7 лет назад

Looks awesome. Shouldn't you tap into the lights in the eyebrow rather than the fog lights? This will have the star illuminate when the headlights turn on automatically for nighttime driving, rather than turning the light switch to on and pulling the knob to turn on the fogs.

@RaymondUrias 7 лет назад

the star looks great in the dark does the star reflect even if your lights are off? should this not be the case then we still need to get somebody who will be able to make up a star that will be able to reflect on the dark with no use of battery or engine power. However moving to the current given star that lights up is still my option that will take my Benz to the future

@jayherbert3647 5 лет назад

Hello Raymond. Thanks for the video, definitely made it a lot easier. I do have a question for you. When I got the star I powered it directly to the battery just to test it and it was super bright and looked awesome. Problem now is , since I tapped into the DRL for the power source it is not as bright. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@hseochin 5 лет назад

I won't bother with such a big lit star logo...makes the vehicle too unnecessarily obvious & funny looking, like a 'clown's car ?! Simply can't bring myself to be 'impressed' with this questionable idea of a lighted star as if a non-lit star is not obvious enough ?! Instead i'll gladly prefer to stick to the classic time tested smaller metal star which stands upright ABOVE the front grill...although not so obvious compared to a big lit star but overall the traditional simple upright standing star concept characterises a Mercedes-Benz more distinctively & meaningfully while also serving a great practical function (as a front limit marker) & ornamental talking piece viewable even from the interior of the vehicle...2 fundamentally superior benefits which a big lit front facing mounted star simply does not offer !
