could someone please tell me if my bonnet badge is stuck on or does it have clips etc?? its a 1997 SLK230, I think its just stuck on, but I do not want to damage the car, and on that well known auction site these badges are listed as stuck on, clip on, bolt on etc, I can measure the diameter easily enough, but want to know how its fixed before I bid.

Many thanks.

you need to open the bonnet you may need to remove the bonnet catch 2 x 10mm bolts, then behind that you can see the badge, it has 2 pins on the back and its held in place with 2 rubber sleaves, with some thin plyers they slide off easy enough and the badge is then free to lift off.
