Hey just about 5 years behind the Japanese but better than never i guess.

Don't expect to retrofit a DVD COMAND to you car. It probably uses MOST instead of D2B.

Where did you purchase the mag? I've never seen or heard of it.

There is an auto book store in Burbank that has every magazine about cars. I am allways envious of BMW, they have 6 magazines devoted to car nuts.

The Mercedes Enthusiast is published in Britain.
We have "The Star" by the MB Club of USA,
Benzo, a bling bling magazine published in New York
and the Mercedes magazine published by Mercedes for owners.

The Star magazine is by far the best, and membership is easily paid by discounts in parts to their advertisers.

We gave up. We use a map and a cell phone.

That's great news about MB's nav system. I wonder why they don't just contract Alpine to take care of things.
