CLK430 Cabrio

CarPC, DL065A, and existing GPS antenna

Is there an adapter to connect my exisiting GPS antenna to the laptop USB or serial port? I am planning to install CarPC in my CLK 430 and remove the existing command 2.0 unit. I finished up all the wiring and waiting the arrival of the DL065A 6.5" Double-Din VGA Touchscreen (shipped out today). It would be great if I could hookup the exisiting gps antenna to the PC directly, vs installing a new USB or serial GPS antenna. Any ideas? I saw an article in mp3car.com, but I am not sure if that applies to the Mercedes OEM antenna.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
