Navigation module missing

[Darrenr75]

Hi folks

Newbie to the forum here.

Bought a 2014 C Class AMG Sport and it’s missing the navigation module and I wondered how to check which is the right one for me to purchase?

Thanks in advance.

We also bought a 2014 car that had a missing sat nav module. Our SLK had the cradle fitted into the glove box compartment and we bought a Becker Pilot type module.

Below is an entry for the https://www.beckermappilot.com/shop/login/ if yours is the same you will find a pre wired socket in the glove compartment into which you will simply plug in a Becker Mappilot cassette.
There is also a used market for the cassettes but be careful that user defined security codes don't already exist on the unit and the usual thieves on ebay!

Hello new member alert!

Sorry to jump on an old thread but thought it may be better than starting a new one.

I have just bought a 2012 C200d which also has a missing sat nav module. I was looking at the previous links for the Carabc, but unfortunately it's out of stock on Amazon. However I have found this unit and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it? I think it is pretty similar to the Carabc unit.
