ML350 Installing CD CHANGER NEED HELP
Recently bought a base ML 350 during the December sale, but it did not come with the changer.
I have bought the correct equipment ML CHANGER/Bracket, but dealer is making it hard to install, acting as though it can not be added.
This is BS
1) anyone have pics of the back of a ML COMMAND HEADUNIT
2) anyone have instructions for installation when I go to AUDIO guy
3) Im in LA, CA anyone know a specialist that is is nondealer locally that can do the work.
All Mercedes post 2002 come prewired for installation , anyone have advice for me installing my new changer.

Your 2006 ML350 should be similar to the W211 (new E) audio system below. The connection should be just power from the SAM, the pink wire for the MOST Wake-up bus, and the MOST fiber cable.
After you put everything in, you have to get your MB dealer to version code the MOST configuration. This is in the MOST master. If you have a A20 radio, the MOST master is in the radio. Since the CD Changer is in the next position from the MOST master, all the other MOST devices likely will not work until the version coding is done.

Went back to the dealer(LA DOWNTOWN MOTORS) they did not want to MOST update WTF.
Claimed that the ML350 does not have a clearance to be updated with a Mercedes MOdel CHanger. Advice. this is total BS.

??? Changer
I understand the by the way, but I am confused as to "Find Samhmbz's place. He is a shop honcho at a L.A. dealer." where do I find this guy that can help me.
Also the connection was only the fiber optic cable, and the Power.
THere was no third wakeup pink wire.

Send him a PM. He will answer you.
I think there should be a MOST Wake-up line, which is pink.
