Mercedes Benz Star Sign LED Light Font Grill Emblem THE EASY WAY !! 

Thank you for your feedback!

@@AlbanianFix mine is a 2012 mine does not turn any ideas 🤔

@@meaghans4591 Your car seems to be like this one below: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cNgjFWamEPk.html and even in this video it should just twist off. Maybe it's stuck a bit or need a little more force (Not too much though or it'll break). But your car's star emblem definitely twist's off like this.

@@AlbanianFix 2012 the whole grill has to be removed 🙄my luck mine does not twist these after market parts are the worst the star to door sills not worth it 😞

It's now in the description... thanks!

Thank you Laith!

That's a good idea 👍

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8qwxtpoBudU.html Make sure yours is clean

Honestly, it was a little bit of a pain down there, Barely any slack.

I wouldn't be sure 100% for your car, sorry.

There definitely should be, I just wasn’t comfortable doing it that way.

As long as you can take the star off by turning it counter clockwise just like in this video then yeah you’re good to go 👍

If it doesn’t twist off like I’m showing it on the video then you probably have a clip-on star. If that’s the case, you’ll have to get on the backside of the star and unclip all of the tabs around the emblem. To get to the backside of the star, you’ll have to remove a few parts at the top of the grill or remove a few front bumper clips and screws (locate on each side of the front tires and underneath the carriage) just enough so you can slightly tilt the bumper forward for you to reach to the back of the star. Keep in mind that a clip-on star is not compatible with a twist-on star. You’ll have to find the right LED star that can also clip-on.

It should be the same and you should be abke to remove the star by twisting it off just like shown in tbe video.

Faleminderit shqipe!!

Nice, then this will definitely work for you!

Ah the infamous LED flickering. Looks like your car either doesn’t supply the right voltage to the LED or the current is not consistent enough because it’s not made for LED light systems. The only answer would be to get in touch with the LED seller or manufacturer and ask them if they have some sort of a Anti-flickering Adaptor like LED decoder or Load resistor that can cancel out the flickering. If they don’t have anything then I would look into other LED companies that make Stars for Mercedes which also support your car model.

@@AlbanianFix Thank you very much. That's very helpful. Perhaps I should just buy the one you got!

As long as the emblem twists off from your car then yes. I updated the link, thanks!

I believe all of the newer ones are twists.

I updated the description, the link works now.

Try to twist your original first to see if it pops out like in the video. If it does, then this will work.

@@AlbanianFix Makes sense... thank you & rrofsh vllaio...

Since the make of this video, it hasn't had any effect on other lights or power draw. The LED itself has gotten a bit dimmer but that's just the quality of the LED light over years. I might replace it again someday, especially now that the lines are run and the swap will be a breeze, will take me like 30 seconds literally.

@@AlbanianFix Thank you.

You don’t need the exact one, just something similar that will do the same job. Try Advance Auto, Napa, O’Reilly, Home Depot or Lowes.

I’m not sure about the headlight but you can always use a volt meter, unplug the headlight harness and measure which wire becomes hot when you turn on the headlights.

@@AlbanianFix hey bro I’m trying to wire mine like he did his. I’m trying to have it turn on when my light come on at night. Just have to find the right wire

@@temper21st I wouldn't sweat it man. There's only two cables, so hook up to one of the cables, if it works great, if it doesn't, hook up to the other one. The cable tap/splicer can be undone and doesn't damage the cables.

Yeah you should e able to. First make sure you can twist off you emblem so this one can be twisted on.

Yes, as long as it spins.

asking because the c43 is one of the few that doesnt have alot of after market options available

As long as you can take the star off by turning it counter clockwise just like in this video then yeah you’re good to go 👍

As long as you can twist it off as shown in the video then your golden. If not, you can always jerry-rig something on yours.

It's in the video's description. Click on the link that's for the Star and it will bring you there.

It’s not possible to easily twist it off like on this year model but you can find aftermarket parts to make it fit.

Nooo waayy, don’t tell me they changed the way they do it now!

Haha my 2013 doesn’t look like a twist either and I’m fuming 😭

@@AlbanianFix in my 2022 they did, I think I'll have to change the whole front to do that

I didn’t think so

O gjermono 🤣🤣 si tkom shqipe? Aty isha para 1 muaj, ne Friedrichshafen, nja 2 ore larg nga ty. Po ti po thu për W205 apo jo? Nejse, shko te makina dhe shiko a rrotullohet ylli qe ke apo jo. Nqs mund ta heqesh me te rrotullume ashtu siç e heq un në video, atehere te bën ylli me dritë. Un e kom ble ne eBay. Aty i gjen te gjitha kollaj, kërko për mercedes led emblem.

Pershendetje Goni!!! A shum mir pra, e hoqe. Tash vetem me lidh kabllot edhe je ne rregull. Tung!

Also when I do the wireing do I need to cut anything for the daylights wire that’s already on the car or just throw that connecter on there and that’s it?

They’re all over the internet, Amazon, eBay, etc. You don’t need to cut anything. Just place the wires in the splicer, crimp it and it will cut through and make the connection for you. Very easy.

@@AlbanianFix what’s the name of it so I can order a set

Cause the one u exactly have dose not come up

You can def. do the fuse box but it seemed easier this way to me.

Isn’t there a sensor behind the badge on the 2014 a class A180 though , I’ve got one on mine ?

It’s in the description 👍

@@AlbanianFix The link must be broken because the item isn't there anymore 😢

@@seanmitchell1245 Fixed it.

@@AlbanianFix Thanks!

Jo vlla akoma, mund te hap nje kanal tjeter ne youtube ne shqip por nuk e di saktesisht se kur. Me thuaj ku ke ngel edhe do mundohem ta shpjegoj ktu...

👌

It’s in the description.

Whoa 😳 😮 how did that happen??? Please share us your story as what wire you tried to hook it up to for others to read. Your story can help save people a lot of money.

So I attempted to hook mine up the same way as this video. However, I tried to tie it into the low beam headlight using the same type of clamps shown in the video. The European car mechanic I used explained that the star and the car lights are different voltages which caused the problem.

Which really sucks because I have the star in, but not wired, and I really like the way they look lit up!

I don’t think there’s anything for 06 but I might be wrong. Anybody reading this, if you know of a place that has it, please chime in.

I’m guessing… very roughly… around $500.

Just had my C300 quoted at $821

@@bigehauben827 Thanks! I had my GLE350 quoted a couple years ago for $1,000. I just brought my wife's GLA250 in for it's first service and asked again. Yup, still $1,000. I wanted to grab one of the Mercedes mechanics walking around and ask him if he'd like to throw it in for $100 on his lunch break or day off!

@@bigehauben827 Dang!!! I said $500 by assuming that would be the highest anyone would charge. 🙄🙄

They quoted me $1100

Lol 😂 yeah pretty much

Hmm 🤔 what is that sensor used for? Can it be reattached to the new LED star and still operate the same?
