Ok thanks, a lieele research shows it is called LED ground effect. Its DIY-able but with some knowledge of electronics though.

I misunderstood your previous post.
I thought you were talking about the type that displays your car logo on the ground.

Great work I found one online for over $56.00 for the W204. You saved yourself some money and it feels proud knowing you did this from scratch.

Thanks.

Still up and running...

One L.E.D less though, probably due to a partial contact in wiring caused by environmental stress on the logo. However, barely noticeable.
