New DVD Navigation System in my CLK
Here it is boys & girls... My new DVD Navigation system.
Eclipse AVN2454
- CD/DVD/MP3/DVD Nav/etc...
Some basic pics of the Double-DIN setup... its got a few of my dirty fingerprints on there & the trim piece is only a temporary one until I can get one custom made...
The system is very fast & quite accurate... 5.5 seconds to map from LA to NY... 2-3sec to reroute
8V Preamp output
50Watt built in amp
6.5" Touch screen
Its a much more sophisticated system over the OE COMAND system

Looks great Danny! I LOVE how it sits right in the double din slot - once you get the trim piece made it will be absolutely perfect. As much as I love OEM fit and finish, I have to say

I've never quite been the fan of flip monitors... so the Double-DIN layout here is perfect for me... and the Nav DVD slot is built in.. nothing else need to buy...

It looks very good. Just the fact that it's a double-DIN and not a flip out makes it look more OEM. Also, I like that it is touch screen so there is less need for buttons, which allows it to have a bigger screen.
Would this setup work with the OE CD changer?
Nice job, once again.

at the least, the Eclipse head unit has a built in MP3 decoder, so, 1 MP3 cd (~135 songs) is about equivilant to 6-7 regular CDs.... so, no real need for a changer...
plus, once I plug in the ipod, a changer would definitely not be necessary...

.............very nice. I am glad someone else has done this to their MB. I did this to my 300CE a year ago and posted pics. This system is made by ROsen AKA Necvox and is now sold under different names including Audiovox and eclipse. It is a very nice system. You do loose steering wheel controls, but in my case my 300CE nevr had steering wheel controls so it was not a concern. The double DIN set up was a big problem in my 300CE and I had to use custom made dash kit. For the CLK, no such drastic measures are needed.PICS OF MINE

............further, at the time I did mine, the NAV unit was under development so I used the pioneer and integrated it together, The NAV unit is now available. Debating whether to switch to it.
