How do I install replacement Mercedes hood star on 1979 car?

Old one is completely gone. I have a new one, but no installation instructions.

Update:

There is only a hole where the old one was.

    When you have the old star off, you put new through the hole from top and the base part turn it 90 degrees and that locks it. If you have trouble getting old star off pull the little lock pin out of bottom base.
