Yes, anything is possible. The question is, do you want to spend that much money?

Congratulations on your new Mercedes, and welcome to MB World! You may wish to post on the W204 forum for a 2008 model. The W203 ran from 2001 to 2007.

Welcome to MBWorld and congrats on the car.

Possible (seen some on ebay pretty cheap)

IPod connection kit is what you need (dealer has them and you might be able to find it cheaper)

I'm not to sure because we have the older C Class and you have the newer one.

If you want better answers try posting your question here.

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w204-83/

Those are the guys that own the 08 and above C Class.

I'd have to say that you will be looking at quite alot of money. In the 204, it's not just the head unit like it is in our cars. The iPod from Mercedes will be expensive as well. For us, new, from the dealer, it's somewhere around $300. The one in the 204s is different, with multiple inputs such as usb and headphone jack. I would definitely post in the other section... and please find the CAPS LOCK KEY!!!

Are you serious?? They sell the complete system with the top cover and everything you need that was pulled off a car. What do you mean it's different?

Don't discourage the guy. You guys out of no where assume it's way to much for him.

Also the Ipod kit is 300.00 dollars

Here is the part number
A204 870 28 90

I wasn't trying to discourage anything!!! I was just saying that it will be expensive. I just assumed that, since the head unit is completely integrated into the center console, with different components everywhere, that it would be more difficult and more expensive.

call a dealer or do a search with that part number in google, also no offence but read, your in a forum for 07 and older C classes, the W204 08+ forum would do you way better.

getmercedesparts.com has them. Dealers in my area are usually expensive (Los Angeles). I don't know how bad it is in your area but you can try the dealer first then try the website for the Ipod kit. If your going to hook up the ipod kit you might as well get the Mercedes GPS too and knock them out at the same time.

Good Luck,
