    The three-pointed star emblem, whether it lives floating above a Mercedes-Benz’s hood or it’s stuffed into the grille, is one of the most recognizable brand marks in the world. Even so, Benz thinks the star can carry even more, er, star power and has introduced a new option for illuminating the emblem. Yes, this is a thing, and yes, Benz is seriously doing it. But hey-luxury buyers’ need to flaunt their purchases doesn’t wait for daylight. Benz’s LED-illuminated badge is available in the Mercedes accessories catalog, and is dealer-installed.

    So much for the installation video. We all would like to see it wired in. I myself am an auto technician, and have the ability to do it, but some other Benz owners would like to know how to do it themselves. Good install though. Can this be purchased from a Mercedes-Benz dealership? I've seen several aftermarket versions, but would prefer oem.

    When I purchased my 2015 E 350 4matic a few weeks ago, I worked the illuminated led star in the deal. They had my car for several days thinking they had the wrong harness to hook it up but they discovered the had the correct one. I believe they haven't installed too many of these lights... My question is... My light does not illuminate very bright (you can barley tell that it is on). It there a way that I can adjust the illumination of the lights from behind the star? Thank you in advance for your wonderful youtube installation and I look forward to hearing from you.

    • @DanielSadjadian
      @DanielSadjadian 6 лет назад +1

      I installed one myself on my C180 and it's not that bright either. The problem is that the actual LED lights are tiny, you can see them being the star in the middle section. Perhaps you could buy another version with bigger lights or try turning up the voltage, but they're never going to be that bright.

    It can be done in 20-30 minutes. He skipped over steps on purpose. You need a fuse tap. Looks like he is grounding it at the bottom which is more work and not necessary. What's unknown is if he has to drill out a hole for the red wire and rubber seal or Mercedes from newer cars on has this built in. Either way, I bet they charge two hours for this which is absurd.

      There must be a work around now. I just purchased a 2020 GLC with the front sensors without the illuminated star but the salesman said it could be added. When the star finally came in the installer at first said it wasn’t possible. I complained hard because I told them when I purchased the vehicle my last car had one and I needed my new to also have one, otherwise I’d buy the C Class already loaded. Anyway, long story short Mercedes does have an official work around.

    • @chrislynch8916
      @chrislynch8916 6 лет назад

      Yup, the genuine star and the genuine setup is that the star is illuminated ONLY when you press your keyfob to unlock your car. Those that have the star illuminated when the headlights are on are those who have wired it differently in the fuse box under the hood (bonnet). This will expire their warranty by Mercedes if they are under the warranty period.

    • @corkeb

      False - Installed by dealer before taking delivery in Canada on 2019 GLC Coupe - does not illuminate when locking or unlocking - only is on when headlights are on just like the video shows.

      I have this part OEM, im in the UK, but it clearly says on the part that its north American market only. How it runs depends on how you wire it, if you wire it like Mercedes says to it turns off when the engine runs, but you can wire it to run with the engine on.
