need source for emblem
I need another merc 3-pointed star -- the one on the engine cover of a 210 E55. I searched the web without success.
Any sources would be appreciated.
Thanks

The badge comes with the front engine cover, so you have to but the whole thing.
However, It's quiet expensive and not worth it. Most people get the W221 (for example) trunk emblem and attach it to the cover.

Got the mb star emblem.
I decided did not to use the paper trace method to create a template for drilling the engine cover. There is too much chance for error in this method.
Instead, I used a direct transfer method which was to put white-out liquid on the ends of the star mounting pins and then press the star onto the cover, leaving the drill points clearly marked.
Used 5/32" drill bit.
Job done!
