I recently purchased the Mercedes Benz LED star and at first it looked difficult but after watching your YOU TUBE video it wasn’t difficult at very easy and everything was just as you said very good instructions and easy to follow
Thank you so much you save me lots of money, I watched and followed your instructions it worked for my 09 c300!
Worked great on my 2015 C300! Connected red to red/white wire and black to brown (ground). Light stays on as long as daylight running lights are on. Thanks!!
Does the brightness of the star change during the day or night? The DRL brightness changes so I'm curious to if the star's brightness changes too.
I realy like the fine details of instalation a lot of youtubers should take note thank you
I love the stock look of my 2012 glk but kinda want this too.
AfzaMoto, thanks for this video. I followed it and it has worked on my 09 C200K. However I do not have DRL, so I wired it to the fog lights below in the same spot, and when I unlock the car the star lights up. And I can also turn the star on and off, just as I can with the foglights. It's really addictive modifying the MB, can't stop! Thanks for your video, great to follow and a very nice look to the car in the evenings! Cheers!!!
Yeah!!!! That's awesome !!!!
Thanks! Did this on my wife's 2013 C250 and the video was invaluable! I still don't understand when the lower LED lights that we tapped into are on?! I could only get them to come on with the engine running and never really noticed before. But thanks. The 2013 is not the screw out type and we needed to know to remove the grill to get it out.
Nice vid, liked the blue circles a lot!!
Great video, thanks for the help
nice informative vireo. I would seriously suggest that that those wires be soldered. I think I will get one of those
The easiest place to wire the emblem to are the orange / yellow side marker lights.
There's only two wires attached to the bulb a ground and a power. It's super easy and easily reversible.
Just did it bro very greatful for the comment u left thanks bro couldn’t be easier
@@JuiceForJuice you're welcome the other way, is too complicated and so many things can go wrong.
The worst case scenario you have to replace a side marker indicator over a fried headlight.
09 C300. I wired in to right/passenger side headlight as there is more room. Strip away some of the protective covering. Black to brown wire. Red to smaller gray/red wire. It lights up when you first press the key fob on entry and when headlights come on at night. My car has fog lights and not the day time runners.
The star lights are LED and the main car headlight is hologen lights. Wouldn't this put too much power to the LED star light?
NO. There Are Resitors In The Star.
hello in my Mercedes c coupe 2012 I have daylight if I install it there the star stays on always or turns on at night thanks
Make sure to always cut towards yourself lol Gonna do this ti my benz when i decide to buy it. The website I'm looking at doesn't indicate a c350 2013
I have a 2016 C Class. Do you know if this would work if I have collision prevention assist?
I want to put this star in the fuse box.. do i need a piggy back fuse to do this? Don’t want to splice in the drls, i have a 17plate a200 facelift
I had the illuminated star installed on my 2010 C300 yesterday, and the only time it will work is when I use the fog light (the one that shines brightly in the rear...I actually have to pull out the car light knob to activate the star) . I don't want the emblem illuminated with my daytime running lights, but when I drive at night with the regular lights, I want the star illuminated. What do I need to do to accomplish this? What do I need to ensure it's wired to?
last year i wired some daylight lights to my sidelights myself and car has been fine - today i decided to fit one of these badge type on the grille - it works with my headlights but i noticed my glow coil is coming on while diving then dissappears also the engine management light is permenantly on. so i dissconnected this grille light but still same errors - so i had to get the codes cleared and car is fine now.
continued do u or anyone know if this caused by light or pure coincedence as car was fine before install no errors. the computer said 3rd glow plug o/c surely if its a glow plug then error will come back again straight away
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.
So would that fit on a 2017 sprinter van?
Trying to install on a 2016 gla250 any suggestions
Hi, I would try to make this Merced led logo alone, but on my W176 don't have fog lights on my car. Where I can take 12V?
nice video... very helpful. a have a question though... is it ok to tap on the auxilary battery and it use to power LED strip light?
Will it be the same for 2013 c350 coupe
are your headlights and blinkers led or hid?
Good video. Would want to do this to my e550 but I think I'd rather it be connected to my headlights. You don't need the star to light up during the daytime. Just would be a waste in my opinion.
I have a 09 C300 4matic sport and I don't want to connect this to the fog lights can anybody tell me or send me a picture of how they connected them to the headlights or the side markers.
Will it fit my 2013 Benz GLK350 Base?
hi, We can i ge the Mercedes for GLC250
Hey AfzaMoto nice video.!! i have the same model but a 2014. Could u list me the tools to order for the entire installation?
Will the wiring method you use keep the star lit only when running lights are on or both running lights and or headlights. thanks.
+Nick Blinow Hi Nick, my day time running lights stay on all the time when I push unlock button on the remote and when the car is on/running. Star is not connected to the headlights. So it does not matter if the head lights are on or off. It is connected to the daytime running light only. Please let me know if you need any other info, thanks for watching my video.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
used park lights but was a lil harder then it sounds, finding the right wire. I'm guessing the headlights have a relay inside them
im trying to find the parking light wire. can you help plz ?
i even bought the fuse tap but it doesnt look safe to connect it to the fuse box specially regarding the earth wiring. so ive tried to look for the parking light but cant find it ... any suggestions?
Hi bud I really like the star that lights up for the Benz. I was wondering if they make one for my Benz. I have a 2009 CLS550. Plz let me no. Thx.
Hi Richard, Thank you. I would try Amazon or Ebay and just type Star Emblem for CLS550. After that you may wanna double check the dimensions, if dimensions are same if should work. Good Luck and thank you for watching my video.
can u tell me please if it is possible to change head lights led couler in 2016 model the new one ...
It Is Not Possible
:(
this is a incorrect installation. you use the LED driver located on the passenger side firewall, it has two open wago like connectors, just strip and push in to install. this method puts I'm proper load on your leds, by splitting the mili/amps incorrectly. this is on the 2018's I'm not sure about 16,17's
is there any way to make the daytime running lights stay on during the night?
Just wire this to fog or headlights, then it'll turn on when they are on.
Do u have the link to buy for this product?
hi where you buy that emblem led light ?
and it will fit with my 2013 slk 250
1.8L v4 turbo engine ?
hf007jkt why do you think your engine would matter all you need is 2013, and all 250 the rest is unnecessary
Hey great video....just wanted to ask you...did you get any error messages on your dashboard after you installed the star.
I have 2015 C200 and I'm considering installing one on it... but only if I don't get any error messages. I would really appreciate your reply.. thanks.
No not on my 2012 c250
AfzaMoto
Cheers and Thanks for your reply.
i have fog lights instead of daytime running lights. what should i plug it up to?
Hi Erik, You can use parking lights or fog light connection, but you will need to turn on the fog lights to turn on the star light. Thanks and good luck
I connected it to foglights and it still works, and yes, need to turn it on manually. But when you unlock the car they turn on anyway!
great video but i have a cla180 2015 model and i dont have any fog lights what should i do ?
I am not sure but maybe you can use parking light connection.
do you think this will work for a 2012 C350 coupe
Hi Luis, I think it will, just make sure if your star is twist or pull kind before you purchase it. thanks
Why can't you just run a fuse tap to the ignition fuse box to power the LED star? Your star would then come on when the ignition is on and would avoid any wire splicing or messing with vehicle lighting.
LexBrett Gen2, thanks for the suggestion. It is possible, I will try.
Could you please send explain how i would do this?
is installation the same for 2012 550e Cabrolet
I am sorry, I am not sure about it.
Cutting with the cable is not professional. I did it that way and unfortunately the fog lights are now smoking. I have to go to the workshop tomorrow. 🙁
The wire will not heat up and melt?
Arshad Hossany, no as long as its not touching any Engine parts it will not melt.
so air intake duct just comes apart like that I taught I broked it! also can't get the left clip on the grill cover the one that has the hose under
Hey, are these instructions applicable for a 2013 C300 4 Matic?
No, star is different on it. It's a twist kind.
Thanks for replying so fast. What do you think about the wiring part?
+Abdullah Gondal, wiring configuration can be with the daytime running light, or any other light that can provide 12 volts, such has parking light etc. Its a low amp light so you don't need too much amps. It can also be connected in the fuse box. It also depends on the light you will be purchasing. In any case here is what i recommend.
1. Figure out how to install the star by removing your existing emblem, hopefully its the twist kind and you won't have to take the grille out. If not procedure might be same as mine. Try it and let me know.
2. Figure out if you want to connect it with a light, such as daytime running light or parking light or any other, assuming that you have a two wire connection like mine, if so, double check if you can easily access and connect the wires.
3. If you plan on connecting in the fuse box, then configuration will be different. check out the below video link it shows the fuse connection th-cam.com/video/uvTklE6xYlQ/w-d-xo.html
I think you can do it! please let me know if you need any help.
Thanks and good luck
Do you have a picture or diagram of how to install the inline fuse to this Illuminated M-B emblem? In the kit I have there is an inline fuse and I'd like to know how to connect it in this configuration. Here is the Item description for the emblem I purchased on Amazon for about $50, "Replacement Full Time LED Illuminated POP-OUT Star Emblem For OEM 2005-2012 Mercedes Benz A B C E R SLK CLS GLK Class." Link: www.amazon.com/Replacement-Illuminated-POP-OUT-2005-2012-Mercedes/dp/B012CT2GWG?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

+Bill Jones +Bill Jones Hi, I am not able to see any inline fuse option in the the link? A simple inline fuse is really easy to install, there are many videos available on youtube, type in "How to install an inline fuse". It will give you the basic idea. Send me the pictures if you can. thanks Afzamoto@gmail.com
Has anyone been able to get a hold of one of these stars for 2014 c250?
The 2013 C model star should work on your car. I also have a 2014 C250 and will install this.

Best vid so far....i have a 2011 e350 coupe. Does anyone know where i can find the illuminated star for that year and model? and is there any chance you and do a diy vid on connected it (or any other illuminating device) to a switch within the cabin. Preferably something that looks stock or just classy?
Sorry Marcel for a late reply, I am sure it can be done but I have no idea how to do it.
no problem but i have another question. After i installed the emblem i my car would not start and i started seeing the srs warning and a abs warning in the dash. Would the emblem have something to do with it or did my battery go?
+Marcel Lawrence it is your battery.
+AfzaMoto it was the battery. Thanks. 👍🏿
+Marcel Lawrence perfect. So how did you install the star led, and share some pics. Thanks.
I just used T-taps on my side parking lights. Why bother stripping wires when you don't need to. Also, why connect to DRL's? Makes no sense when they dim when lights come on. Connecting to parking lights has them on at full/normal brightness anytime the lights come on. Don't make things more difficult then they need to.
I purchase the same star from amazon $69.99 I wait to arrived.I have a question:Do you have any error message on the dashboard after installing the star?Some people comment that is not recommend to be installed in this way.I'm a girl and I will try to install myself,your video is very useful for me.Thank you:)
+Diana Liu Hi Diana, I don't have any message reported on the dashboard. Everything works great. good luck. Is your car same model as mine?
My car is 2012 C300 4 Matic black.This Mercedes is your car?Do you change the halogen bulbs interior or exterior with led?I just change the reverse one with Philips 1156 led replacing the 7056 halogen yellow but I received error message on the dashboard because I don't use the Canbus warning canceller 21 w,I love the bright white of Philips but I need to returned because I don't know what cable to punch in order ro instal the canceller and I found on aznoptics a led bulb canbus ready but now is out of stock.So,the star stay on all the time or only when you press lock-unlock button?
mine is 2012 bluetec 1.8L turbo, no I have not changed the halogen bulbs. Mine works with the daylight, yeah it works with the daytime running lights.
I need to removed all that parts in order to put that cable until the DRL?
+Diana Liu I am not sure if you have the same parts. Try not to force anything out. Take your time and do one thing at a time. Watch my video and see if you have similar parts.
i want this..where can i get for my merce 2008..from malysia
I am not sure, but try amazon or ebay. Good luck and thanks for watching my video.
Will the installation be the same for a C-class 2008?
+MrFaik09; it should be compatible with the below models.
2008-2013 Benz C class W204 C180 C200CGI C200K C230 C260 C260CGI C300 C200 COUPE C350 C250,

+AfzaMoto is this star twist or pull?
It's a pull, there are tabs behind the star.
+afzamoto what about a 2014 C250 sport sedan?
Can you send the link to the one you bought off Amazon?
+Brandon C Hi, I bought it from this link "amzn.com/B00SO9GYNQ". it shows currently not available. There are many sellers on ebay selling similar badges (all from china!) here is a sample link "r.ebay.com/8URtQg" . Mercedes-Benz models up to 2012 they have different design. Make sure whatever badge you purchase it is compatible. Further, you may want to inspect/plan installation procedure before you purchase the star. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.
+AfzaMoto thank you
+AfzaMoto Not sure what happened....followed everything you said, it did work and light up, but mine looks more dim than yours...any ideas?
+Brandon C, it will not look anything like your daytime running light. So basically at night time it will look good and bright. My car was parked in the garage, I made the video at night time. Try it in a dark area and check. If it looks dim then return it and use some other vendor.
+AfzaMoto tried it again, same thing...piece of junk I guess
Mercedes benz ml 350 2006
Lmao it's a good video except for the electrical tape and razor blade part .. don't get me wrong it will work but you should always have the proper tools and materials for a clean job that you never have to go back to other than that good shit
how much does it cost?

always cut away from you
The wires should be soldered, and traced better through the side lining , plus battery should have been disconnected for safety, poor video😔
Die Verkabelung geht ja mal gar nicht
Habe es leider so gemacht, habe leider das originale Kabel angeschnitten und alles verbunden wie in diesem Video.
Jetzt qualmt es aus den Nebelscheinwerfer:((( weiß nicht weiter
@@reflektion1791 oje
Katastrophe
Not helpful at all
Those light-up emblems are so tacky. "Look at me!!! I'm in a Mercedes!!!" Grow a pair, please.
way to be "that" guy
Moses Berkowitz I’m curious do you have a Mercedes to even comment? This video was for people who actually have a Mercedes.
Will the installation be the same for a 2012 c-300
+Brandon Chestnut i think it will work, but I am not 100% sure on it.
