    Thank you for this video, I couldn't find any other video on youtube for the E Class W213 for the LED Star. I called multiple dealers, they don't carry nor can they order the Star. It is apparently "stock build" only? So if it isn't installed with the car at initial build, it isn't something you can add later...which is what was basically explained to me. However with this video I see you managed to order the LED Star separately and install it. I can't even find this part on Amazon, Mercedes or Ebay, so is there a source you used to order this? Thanks again for the video!

    Hi I have a GLC 300 2020. Does anyone know how to take out the emblem in order to replace with illuminated star. Not sure if it pops out by prying the front face or do we have to take the grille out and pop the clips from the backside?

    Obviously, you're car doesn't have distronic or distronic plus on it. Everyone needs to know that if your have the distronic or distronic plus, you can't put on the illuminated star. The reason for this is because the LED EMF will disrupt the function of the distronic. FYI

    DriverStein what do you think Mercedes does? I just got a quote from them to do it. They do the same thing.... instead they use a fuse adapter and t tap right into another fuse cause it’s quicker. They don’t install a module or anything. They tap into the parking light or into the headlight. They don’t have some sort of module that does special things. T tap won’t burn anything. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Sorry
