Recently someone asked about a draught stop and I was able to guess what that was, but bonnet roundel has me stumped.

I am assuming he wants to attach a vertical Mercedes emblem on the hood?

I was about to Google it out of curiosity. If I had been forced to guess, that would not have been it. Good to expand my vocabulary I guess.

To the original poster, if that is indeed what you meant, a stand up Mercedes hood emblem, of course it's possible. There is a guy on here switching to an entirely different engine from anothere model - by comparison a hood ornament is a cinch. Mostly you need to find one that will sit upright based on hood slope. Probably most people would vote against doing it but it's your car.
