Best way 2play MP3 in C63?

Hi guys! My C63 -2009 is on its way to me and i will have it in about 1week! i have never drived or even sitt in a C63 and now i wonder whats the best way to play MP3 files in the car? It will come whit the Command system!

Do you have like the RS4 an SD card slot or does the C63 use some other way to go?

There is an Ipod kit or you can use the card slot, you down load your MP3 files to a SD card and plug it into slot on the command but you'll need a PC adaptor card. San Disk sells one for about $25. The O9 command does not show Ipod information on the nav screen or use the command control ****. You have to use the steering wheel buttons which is a PIA. If you use a PC card you can get song title etc on the Nav screen and control it with the command ****. The 10 command does show the ipod on the nav screen but it is no soft/hardware upgrade for the pre 10 cars.

OK! Where is the slot on the Command lokated? On the screen that flipps out when you start the car? Can you then keep the card inside the command when the screen flipps down?

Can you put the MP3-files in katalogs or they have to be in a straight line?

It is based on the folder structure.

The PCMCIA slot is right under the volume **** on the command system. I'm using a PCMCIA to CF adapter. The more mp3's you have stored on it the longer it takes to load after starting the car.

Also you can burn mp3's to DVD-R's and put them into the cd changer. I have 6 dvd's with mp3's and a 16gig memory card in my car.

OK! On the CF memorycard are the files in a straight line or can you put them in different catalogs?

I don't understand your question.

the CF is read just like any file system on a computer. You can create folders/directories and store your MP3's there to sort them.
