What's up with the flaming javvy? If you want me to post pics with my username, you could of simply asked instead of calling me out and accusing me of being a scammer. For one thing, I'm not even selling anything. There's gotta be some rules of conduct on this forum. You can't just jump into a post and start accusing people of being a scam without even first trying to engage the person you're accusing on whatever it is you are concern or have issue with. To put this to rest, I'll post pics tomorrow and would appreciate an apology from you to everyone.

How about tracking down my IP instead of talking crap? Don't see how I could be in Seattle and Philly at the same time. So what if I don't post a lot? Anyway done with this thread. Stupid trollers, you know who you are.

It looks like its using the same software all the cheap ebay ones use for around 250-300 ish. I really like how they copied Mercedes faceplate like that. Could be priced a lot better im sure they would sell tons more.

You can get updated maps for iGo Navigation at: http://www.igo-maps.info/nac.php
But you can also run TomTom or Garmin Navigation software as well if you prefer.

The Dynavin runs Nav N Go iGO v8.3.X navigation software but you can run TomTom or Garmin instead if you prefer but you have to find a way to download those software. I want to run the Garmin navigation software myself but still haven't figured out where or how to get the software. Researching this option on http://dynavin.freeforums.org (this is the Dynavin's official forum). But so far, the iGo navigation software isn't that bad. Just need to get use to it since I'm more familar with the Garmin and TomTom navigations.
Here's a link that provides a review of the Dynavin unit, it's based on a unit for the bmw's which has the same functions and features as the W203 unit.

I don't think that was the issue....the issue was that some thought I was a scammer trying to sell the product and wanted pics with my user id shown with the unit installed in my ride. That's since resolved.

Philly, Do you think the Aux can be used for a SAT input? I have it already installed in my c280 and would definitely buy this unit if I didnt loose SAT. Also do you have a Harmon or Bose system and does it matter?

awwww.. i was really hoping it didnt look like one of those mp4 players back in the days..
i was hoping the opening would be more classy, if only they could make them nicer i wouldve put an order on one.

Not sure as I did not use the Aux input. Let ask the vendor and see what he says. My C230 has the Harmon Kardon, but I don't think it matters if it's a Bose or Harmon.

Anyone tried dropping a COMAND 2.5 into the C55? I have an Audio 20 today and would like the COMAND 2.5 if it is plug and play, else the COMAND 2.0, or alternatively this Dynavin unit which seems to have better functionality than anything from Mercedes. (I personally am not keen on the colors but the functionality seems great.)
Also curious to the answer on whether the Dynavin would affect my 6 CD changer.
