Tapping into existing Microphone 2007 SL55 R230
Hi everyone
I'm working hard on trying to get all information on my upcoming HU swap
I am stuck on trying to find a way to use my builtin microphone as I do not want to tear my rear-view mirror apart if I don't have to
I've read conflicting posts on some 2007's where there are multiple microphones and some there is a single one inside the rear-view mirror
I would like to know where this microphone terminates and can I tie in an aftermarket HU
I know that I have the MOST amplifier and every thread I read said that you cannot use your factory Cell phone when you use a MOST adapter, which is fine, but I have yet to find a post that says you can use the existing microphone on a new HU using the Mic in
Worst case I will rip apart rear-view mirror and replace the existing one but would prefer a simple solution
Thanks for any help

Greetings. Did you happen to sort this idea out? I am looking to do the same and found the microphone wire cable as part of the connector to the Bose amplifier (I have a model year 03). I was going to splice that into my new head unit and was wondering also if that idea worked for you. Best regards.
