Anyone using the Drive Kit Plus feature?
How do you like it?

I'm a new owner of a 2014 GLK-350 with premium 1 package with Becker Pilot Map, No MM package. I'm wondering if the Drive Kit plus feature will work.

Anyone with experience would really appreciate any comments.

Is the kit available already for the glk?

started researching more about this yesterday and saw some threads that say it was not available in 2011/2012 GLK. couldn't find any definitive list out there of supported models either. Maybe it's not available yet for 2014 GLK?

What does the Drive Kit give you? I've been pretty satisfied with hooking up my iPhone to the cable in the center console.

Integration with SIRI and other features like location/maps, etc. are quite nice features.
Anyway, finally found the availability list, the GLK is not in it which is unfortunate :-(

I called MBUSA and they claimed that there were electrical differences between the US and Euro spec GLKs and that is why the Drive Kit Plus is not available stateside for the GLK.

I am not terribly mechanical but it does not make sense to me.

Can someone smart weigh in on this?

according to mbusa's website, drive kit plus is available for the glk.....

my 2015 GLK has becker pre wiring. not sure which choice is better, for the same price of 600 bucks, becker map pilot or drive kit plus for iphone...

Does anyone have the Drive Kit Plus on their GLK?

I am looking to get it because my GLK doesn't have the Becker pre-wire option.

so the drive kit is only for those without the multimedia? I have internet radio and apps but can't seem to activate the internet radio, just the apps are easily accessible. pretty pricey of $300 for a non-functional feature.
