Where specifically are you wanting illuminate the star? The trunk, wheels, grill, shifter maybe hood? Flat badge or not?

I think since there's been only one type of OEM illuminating star what he means should be unambiguous: https://www.google.com/search?q=merc...w=1366&bih=667

the grill, sorry I should have been clear about that, but now that you mention it a illuminated hood badge does seem cool! I've seen it on a couple of BMWs and it's definitely very eye catching!
