WTB:Double DIN (NAV) trim panel for W210 E55

Anyone know where I can get a double DIN trim panel for W210 E55? I have a single DIN and want to put in a Double DIN Aftermarket NAV.

thanks

Good luck! I checked with a couple of my local stealerships and they don't have any. You can try Steve (MBenzNL) and see if he has any. I sent him an e-mail to check as well.

I also need one. I used to have a contact in Germany for OEM parts, I will shoot him and see if they are available and report on the forum, I know they are not easy to come by.

Steve can get The W210 Wood Panel...Mercedes now Only builds ONE 210 Nav Panel with all the holes (Since The W210 Is Out of production )..unlike before where you could order the options
Now you just fill the holes with the Plugs for the Unused Options

or

TRY To locate a USED Double Din NAV panel with the correct options...

You're absolutely right Mark. The dealer by me only was able to obtain the one with all of the holes including the heated/ventilated seats. How would you fill those???

I thought all E55 have heated seats

My local MB stealer want $400 for it. they have to order it from German with all he switch (7) cut out.

Steve at MBenzNL want $330 for it. same deal have to have all the option switches (7 hole).

FYI, if you going to get this double DIN trim panel then you have to use the factory NAV unit. the after market double DIN won't fit. The what they told me.

The factory Nav is much taller, so the open is bigger (vertical) even if yo can get an after market double DIn unit in there will be a big gap above and below it. look really bad.

My suggestion and it look much better and cost less. Go to your local stereo shop, someone who specialize in fiberglass dash, trim, enclosure etc.. and have them make you a custom trim panel. Check out mine, they can airbrush it to look match your wood trim.

They relocate the climate control to the bottom pocket. look really OEM. Can't tell if it was aftermarket.

Cost $150 but you have to remove the panel and leave it with them for a day.

Too expensive to add all of that on the interior Marky boy. I will have Steve send me what I need when I'm ready I guess. I really want to spend my pennies on a little more n/a power before I go crazy and blow my stash on a s/c, lol...

Single DIN ---> Double DIN

I just cut out my OEM Wood Trim and purchased a bracket; sand it and adjust the angel then used a little glue to make the bracket firm. The project is still under construction, but I got the navi up and running now.

Costs >$1500 for a single DIN conversation to a double DIN one, and not all shops are willing to take this job cos its risky breaking your centre wood panel. So I did it by myself and here's the pic. I will be replacing all my existing interior trim pieces with C/F. This project will finish near end of Oct and I will be posting some pics up. At the moment, it looks ugly, but will post up the pics once it is done.

Steve usally has these in stock. I know he has a 5 hole (not including hazard switch) switch panel in stock now. He has my 6 hole on hold for me and shipping it when he gets out here with the rest of the parts that I need for my Command install. He is going to hook everything up for me on his next trip out here including my Euro TV tuner and I'll have DVD go up front as well. I can't wait!!!

You can also saw the 2 single DINs into a double DIN. Another member in here did it and it worked out. Then all you'll have to find is the black wood trim panel...
