SL/R129: Illuminated Star
#1
Illuminated Star
If you want to install the New Illuminated Star in your R129 SL, this is the part number you will want 166 817 0316, hooked up to your parking lights it will stay on all the time, while driving. You will have to make modifications to your existing grille for the star to fit in, because it is a little larger then the original Grille star. You will also have to take the Hood release lever out of the hole and use a strap or rope attached to the upper lever to pull down on the release to unlock your hood, very simple.

These will not fit the R129.

You may have to switch the grille and get a custom installation as I did in the above link
