Fitting Distronic Star
I'm trying to put the distronic star on my grill simply for aesthetic reasons. My 2012 does not have distronic but I'm wondering if this is a issue to switch out the 3d star for the distronic version? Also I cant for the life of me seem to find the part number or find one on ebay that works for the W204. Any help would be great,

I think you'd have to replace your cruise control stock and do some wiring work, plus enable it in STAR to get distronic on a non-distronic car. I think there is a little more to it than just adding the sensor. Good luck if you try, though!

I think he just wants the look, not to make it work, otherwise there is a lot more involved yes, the radar head, the turn signal stock, wiring and possibly programming.

Yes just shooting for the look! I'm looking at the diagram but cant tell if I can use my existing base plate or need a new one?
