Mercedes-Benz to offer illuminated emblem star [video]















German bling





Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH will offer an illuminated central grille star for many of its above compact models.



Boasting an optical fiber with LED technology, the white star emblem is lighted only when the car is stationary. The "Illuminated Star" shines when the car is unlocked or the engine is stopped. It also lights up when the door or trunk is opened. Once the door/trunk is closed, the star will go off in 15 seconds.



Already on sale for the M- and GL-Class models, the luminous star will also be optionally available starting next month for the C-, CLS- E-Class models. It won't be available for the cars fitted with Distronic or Distronic Plus. Another requirement is to have the star in the radiator grille. This optional feature costs 300 EUR.
