Installed in C; still waiting for E

Got the iPod kit installed for my '05 C320W4. Dealer said that a kit was not yet available for my wife's '05 E320W4. Waiting for that to come since it is my wife who really needs the tunes.

Overall, it's a decent kit in that the sound quality is good. The display on the C only shows the first 10 characters or so of the song title and that's it. I was hoping for a little more information. Realistically, only shuffle mode makes sense. I understand the technical issues somewhat, but it is still a major disappointment that it doesn't try to use the Nav screen at all.

Wink iPOD kit for S-Class (W220)

I have a UK registered S 320 CDI Limo (june 2004).

Is there a kit available for this?

NO...no ipod kits for cars with siemens comand (W220 S-class, W215 CL and R230 SL) simply because those comands do not have an AUX in.

that is a CD rom based comand and thus not manufactured by siemens...2003 W220s (which is what yours is) are not compatible with the ipod kits according to DC.
