E320 Bluetec
Looking for part on Ipod Cable - through glove box - E320

Hi -

I have a friend with an 08 E320 Bluetec.

Her dog chewed up her Ipod Interface cable (the one that goes from the glovebox to the Ipod).

Dealeship wants like $650 to replace this - that is way to much, all I need to do is replace the cable that goes from the glove box to the dash.

I have found some pics on eBay of used kits - I just need a single cable, didn't know if anybody had a part number I could search for it with. I have attached a picture of the specific piece I am looking for - it is only the cable that runs Glove Box -> Ipod with the white connector on the end.

Anybody have expirence with these? Just a simple plug and play behind the dash?

Also - anybody know if this is a model specific cable? I haven't found an E320 specific cable, but they all look the same in the OEM pics I have found on eBay.

Price the cable only at the dealership if you think you can do the job.

Better get the service DVD to learn how to take the radio out and the dashboard apart.

It should be the same on all models - an iPod dock connection to an RJ-45. I haven't seen them sold individually, though.

The black box you see is underneath the dash. You will probably need to remove the glove compartment to install it.
