AMG emblem on start up screen

My 2011 E63 on startup has a Mercedes Benz name and star on the car's computer screen. I want an AMG emblem to appear instead. Can it be done and if so, HOW??

I did it on my previous W211 E63. Haven't tried my 212. If you search the forum you'll find instruction for the 211 just not sure if it'll work.

They must have brought it back for the '16's. Mine has the AMG screen on boot up.

I hope that means that on an update for the nav system that the earlier models of the w212 will get the option in the engineering menu. If the option was there on mine I would have changed to the AMG splash screen.
