There are rubber bumpers under the car. Look underneath by the jack covers in the rocker panels.

Can't help you on the Star diag system.

There is a jack point under the door, on the frame.

We sell OEM STAR systems.

I need to program my oem xenon lights to "Xenon Present" Also can anyone tell me if there is any danger to operating the car with oem xenon retrofited headlights in an 05 E320? I will probably need to drive the car somewhere after installing my xenons on my non-xenon car.
