The dension gateway 500 kit works very well for your vehicle and a number of people have had great experience with it. if you do a search you can find alot of info on it here in the forums.

Welcome to the forum - and XJ9 is right, the search tool is your friend. Faster answers, less repetition, for info already there. One post, for the Dension Gateway 500 solution I personally like the best, is at https://mbworld.org/forums/audio-electronics/194660-gateway-500-most-o-good-unit-poor-documentation.html. You might also want to search terms like DICE and Mobridge.

The MB/Apple iPod kit cannot be retrofitted to your car, because it lacks any AUX input - which is needed for the retrofit. Only the '03 has one in the U.S. specification S-Class.

Of course, if you live in Europe, the answer could be different. It might help us to answer better if you complete your profile with where you live - at least, the continent.

I has good success in my 05 E500 with Harmon Kardon's Drive and Play unit. They now have an even better one.
