Did you have Sirius SAT radio, phone / VR kit, back up camera kit, rear entertainment system?

I'm after the same solution (changing my US Nav system with a European one) and I want to know if you had the same model.

Yes, you would need an adapter cable to make the back up camera kit work properly with the Euro comand.

Sorry, Elbout, but I am not into part numbers myself. I only know that my brother (MBenzNL on this forum) told me that such an adapter cable is needed for the back up camera when swapping the US comand for a Euro spec one.

Specs for used Euro Comand system to replace US MCSII?

Neo - could you tell me the specs to look for in buying a used com and system? We just shipped our 2007 GL 450 to Germany with a MCSII COMAND system, and need to basically do what you did to get a working system. We're much less technically savvy than you all. Appreciate any advice.
