Need Audio Advice....
I wanted to install Kenwood KVT-911DVD (Slide out monitor) on my C320. But I don't have any idea where to put it, because I have COMMAND system. If anyone ever install something like that, please advise me. Picture are very appreciated. Thank you
I heard that the COMMAND system can be convert to TV. Is that right?

you should not add the kvt911 if you have command. you will lose all you steering wheel controls, and i doubt you want that. if you really want t.v., i think it can be done with command, but only one a/v source. the way to add several would be to use the single input on the command with a system selector. then have a control to switch between sources on the one available channel on command. this way you can have a separate t.v., dvd player, ps2, and vcr or rear camera. search the clk forum for "command" as i seem to remember someone who had a clk got the command to work.
btw, i almost bought the kvt911, but it is not fully moterized. for a unit that costs $1600+, it should definalty be fully moterized. also, although the idea of a touchscreen is nice, they get so dirty and ALWAYS have fingerprints all over it, which gets really annoying. plus the tv reception really sucks. the only thing i really like about that unit is the picture quality, which really is sweet.
post some pics when you finish your setup, id like to see it

Thank you E_Corleone for your reply. I was thinking about the finger print too on the KVT 911. You mean that the COMMAND can be convert to TV??? do you know where to install that?
I can't find any post about command change on clk forum, i'll try looking at S-class forum and others. Thank you again and I will sure post my pic after I install it.

Why would you want to install a KVT-911DVD when you have command? Wouldn´t it be better to install just a DVD player without monitor and use the command screen? And yes it is possible to use the command as TV too. TV for command is an option from Mercedes but I think there are some aftermarket versions too.

Freddy,
I was thinking to get bigger screen with kenwood. but it seems impossible. I will use my COMMAND as a TV, but I don't know who can do it for me in San Francisco. Will I lose the steering wheel control by adding DVD player?? Thank you . I appreciate it.
