hi all, looking for a bit of advice as to upgrading my head set to a satnav one, i think it ia a command.2 there on the internet for various prices, will the unit go straight in as plug and play, do they really slip staight in or is it a bit more complicated than that, its facelift 2004 c220 w03 thanks ken
Ken, you need to talk to www.comandonline.co.uk - forum sponsors here as well. There are a number of pratfalls with MB ICE stuff - you have to get exactly the correct gear or it won't work!
Comand NTG2 would be the factory fitted unit in a facelift W203. Or you can fit the later harddisk based Comand NTG2.5 which was fitted to MY09 CLC (has same dash as the facelift W203). NTG2 would be a straight swap. STAR coding will be needed to activate navigation on the cluster. NTG2.5 you will need the NTG2.5 retrofit kit on this link: http://www.comandonline.co.uk/W203-W209-W463-Comand-Retrofit/ and STAR coding. The NTG2.5 is the better option however the units have become scarce on ebay so the price has gone up quite a bit for them.
