I've had to replace the windshield on my '89 300CE twice. First time, I told the repair guy that he could only do the job if he put the correct white sticker in the corner. The white stickers, pre Daimler-Chrysler said "A Daimler Benz Product". After the merger, the stickers were changed to say, "A Mercedes-Benz Product". He put the correct sticker on, (Daimler Benz).

Last month I had to have the windshield replaced again, and this time, they put the clear sticker on. That thing is ugly! Unless you are looking right at it from up close, it is invisible.

I've seen several auctions on ebay in the past couple weeks for the white Daimler Benz stickers, but the vendor wants ten bucks each. Luckily, I purchased a few about fifteen years ago and still have one left. Not sure if I want to put it on because when I pick up another rock and have to replace the windshield yet again, I won't have any more stickers left. I'm thinkng about how I can configure the sticker to be reusable, if need be.
