what's the price for the maps sensors?

I found used ones...Dont know the price for new ones.

Chris any part number on the Map Sensors? please thanks

Hey Chris, please tell me from where did you get that shift knob, is SICK!
Thanks in advance!

You got PM.

Sorry , i still haven't received any PM

...for people with a bit more options on a car...and for those who want everything to work:

- when swapping the upper switch row from oldskool to newskool you need to be aware that both the ESP switch and the parktronic switch are no longer able to switch the features OFF and back ON again meaning that you can only switch these features OFF once and cannot switch them back on untill you switch off your car and restart it again...the same goes for the power rear sunshade button - that feature requires a newer rear SAM to maintain working.
In order to maintain the OFF/ON feature of these switches, the ESP unit and the parktronic unit need to be changed out for newer ones

- W211 instrument clusters do not work in a 203...W209 instrument clusters do work and those have been retrofitted several times before (with proper odometer readings)

- the W203 Bose sound does not work with a NTG2.5 comand

greetingz,

a new Rear SAM meaning a 2005+ ? dang

A mention would have been nice, given that I was the first to do this back in 2008 and answered your questions on Benzworld

Here are the in-depth guides I wrote last year:

Nice guide! , ya i have one thats in my sig that i made a while back as well!

Hi,
i could use any help available regarding my facelifting project that i have started too.
Resuming:
My car is a manual w203 c200K with the M111 engine MY2002 (a reduced capacity m111 for countries with odd tax systems like Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal) and an audio 10 for ice.
I have the comand (dvd aps euro version)
I have a spare working audio 20 in case comand has any problem
I have a clk 63 amg instrument cluster
i have the adaptor loom
I have the necessary center console parts, including new gear gaitor and shifter
I have the necessary frame for the cluster and the necessary cage for the comand


Everything is working perfectly, except the Comand. It needs coding to work as the car did not have navigation earlier. the cluster is fully working and controlled from the steering wheel. The audio 20 works,it is controllable from the steering wheel, and it sends info to the cluster. .

I have dismantled almost everything, but i cannot put the cage in the dash. In the photos that chris posted it is obvious that to put the cage in he removed or just moved a bit the console between the seats with the armrest,. I found some screws (2 at the bottom of the dash and 2 in the armrest) but i am not sure if they are the only ones and i certainly do not want to break anything now that i am reaching to the end of the procedure.

I am pretty confident that i can end the procedure myself (the coding will be done by a good friend) and make a good surprise to my indy who will see a different car to the one he serviced last time.

Adding to this i try to figure out a connector for the upper ucp panel. I do not want too much trial and error on this cause i am afraid of burning something

Any help will be greatly appreciated

PS: I am waiting an rca adaptor for the comand. Will i be able to connect anything on it or do i need anything else???? I do not want to open the dash again.

PS2: having so much dash parts dismantled a crazy idea grows in my mind. How difficult is it to put leather or alcantara on the glove box, the center console, the plastic trims under the steering wheel, and the armrest????
I believe that workshops charge more for the dissmantling the parts and put them back on rather than the leather job itself.

Hi There,
Im new to this, I want to upgrade my 2004 C180 sports coupe with a sat nav system, i have a audio 20 fitted already. What comand unit will i need. I also need to connect a iphone 3gs to the system. I already have a mercedes iphone craddle ready to be fiited.

The year of the car is 2004. The car conformity documents also say it 203CL if that helps

Hi There, i am new to all this. I have a 2004 c180 sports coupe, and i want to install comand unit in it. There is an audio 20 already installed. I also need to get my iphone 3gs to work with the comand. I already have a Mercedes iphone cradle.

Thankyou in advance for any help

damn...you must be very clever to do this all by yourself...good job dude!!!

Does anyone know if a 2004 C180 Sport Coupe is D2B or MOST, as i need to get the right unit to get my phone working with my Comand

show us a picture of your interior we maybe able to tell..

would I be able to place this system in my car?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Mercedes-W203-DV...item1c0c52a7f7

does anyone know if its plug and play? My car didnt bring the navi from factory..

Is there a way to connect the comand APS to my iphone via a mercedes iphone cradle, using an interface. i also want it to be able to play the music from the iphone through the comand APS.

You know there's an Aux cable that you can put it in both Comand 2.0, APS and MCS II

Im new to the comand unit, what will the aux output operate, and will i need additional cables.

Well i've read a lot up on this, and some gaps still remain. It seems possible for a w203 2002 c200 to be updated to the new Comand 2.5 DVD with blue tooth (blue tooth being the real reason for the update)

1. Do the steering wheel buttons still work with a swap form Audio 10 to Comand 2.5?
2. Does D2B only effect the phone system and/or CD stacker? I know the new system is MOST but this has nothing to do with the rest of the car? like steering wheel and LCD display?
3. Apart from the new UCP buttons / climate control / Comand DVD unit / New Mount bracket is there any other parts needed? apart for rewiring.

Most is already answerd in the thread.

1. Works only with a new cluster. Already discussed!
2. Yes. Steering wheel goes over Can-Bus
3. Wood parts and adapter cable set. All info in the thread.

chris can you come to New York and hook up my car? lol :-)..
