Benz 2008 C350 sport
Frustrated -- Help Please
Hi
Oredered a C350 recently and not-so-patiently waiting its arrival. For the past three weeks I've been unable to get a straight answer from the dealer to one simple question. "Can the Ipod integration unit offered by MB be installed, and will it work without ordering the multimedia option?". I noticed that MB removed it from the "Build your own" section of their website as an accessory and now you must order the multimedia to get it --- that was not the case a couple of months ago when you could have oredered separately.
I've given up pursuing it which sad since music is a second career for me and is a big part of my daily life --- can anyone help answer to this question.
Thanks

If your dealer is stumped by Diesel Benz's information, stay after it. DB is often way ahead of the dealers.
If you find you cannot get the MB/Apple OE kit, you might consider the Dension Gateway 500 for MOST bus. Irrespective of the title of the string, I upgraded my opinion of the unit after the installation manual was revised. See https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...88#post2234888
My current installation is below.
