I haven't gotten around to measuring it, but I think maybe the body shop didn't get it back in the exact position they removed it from. Being a '91, the model emblem is a stick-on. Obviously, if it had the pins like the star, they would have had to really go out of their way to screw it up.

Jay - At our recent get together I noticed that our trunk badges were in different locations. Which one is per MB spec? - Terry

This should answer your question. Note that the coupe badge is 35mm from left edge.

Wow! Someone who wants to "re-badge" their SEC, as opposed to those of us who have (or tried to) debadged them...!

I don't have the original badging on my SEC anymore so unfortunately I can't help with the measurements. I bought the newer badging and tried to be a little unique/strange by putting SEC560 on with no underline.

cheers,

Last weekend I bought a 560 SEC, smoke silver with mushroom hide. First registered Feb 1989 (build Nov 1988).

Unfortunately it's missing its boot badge... A new one is only £12 from the local stealership, but I need to know the exact location on the boot.

Having looked at pictures, it seems that the 'C' (in SEC) is located on a vertical line above the inside edge of the tailamp... is this correct ?

Secondly, how many mm is the underscore (the chrome underline, that the letters sit upon) above the top of the chrome boot strip ?

I'm looking for precise measurements.

Many thanks,

Fred.
