Hi Guys. Some no good ****s have stolen the Mercedes badge from the front of my 2.5-16, snapped it clean off. How do you replace it? Any one have a replacement for sale please? Thanks, Ade. |

New Merc badge (if you a purist) £27 very easy to replace, remove grill from bonnet and twist bottom of old star at base, use of grips are a must and pop out of grill surround - do the opposite to put in new one - attach grill back to bonnet - just ensure that the bonnet catch is showing through grill on replacment |

You don't need to take the grill off I've done a guide on how to replace with a second hand one as its a bit of a hassle |

The little sh1ts! I'm so glad I now live in an area without such worries, although ever here some mornings I find triangle not quite pointing where it should be. It's a pretty non-technical job, although a little fiddly with that spring loaded thing, long nose pliers very useful. When I did it, I had to take the grill off at the same time anyhow, and it's definitely easier with the grill in your lap rather than bending yourself into a contorted position with the bonnet in the air. (As possibly the least mechanically minded person on this forum, if I say it's easy you can take that as a certainty!) Edited by baroquepop, Thu Apr 16, 2009 1:26 am.
