hello! i searched the forum and didnt find anything mentioned in the w203 section. One way to get bluetooth streaming in a w203 with OEM ipod integration is using an item by Coolstream called the CarPro ($79 amazon) i have it on my 2005 W203. its a small unit that plugs into the 30 pin Ipod Integration kid in the glove compartment. it draws power from the 30 pin connector and turns on/off when car is tuned on/off. it syncs really fast to the last BT device that used it, you can use your steerwheel controls for next track, volume and the track title will show up in your dash display. you can even use those functions with streaming services like Pandora, Spotify, etc. pretty good buy if you ask me!

DIY AUX Cable
Hi, I am having this problem with my AUX input. I have not bought the proper cable that connects to the white plug under the passenger side kick panel, it's too expensive here is South Africa, and I also don't want to have to plug in the MP3 player in the glove box, it's too far away from the drivers seat, rather an inconvenient position.
I need to know the correct colour code for the wires. My plug has 2 black wires, 1 yellow wire and 1 brown wire. I have currently got it working in all the speakers, but there doesn't seem to be any mid speaker sounds, or very little. Most of the music I play comes through loud and clear, apart from a very loud hiss, but when the trebble and bass is not being played in the song, the music is very soft.
Oh, the radio channels and CD's play 100%, so it's not the speakers.
Please could someone tell me what each wire colour means so that I can wire my AUX connector correctly.

No aux input in 2004 c230 kompressor
Hi everyone, I just joined and I have a question.
I have a 2004 c230 kompressor with stock radio,bought the car recently in the USA.
I purchased the aux wire but cannot find an empty plug to connect it. Based on the videos,pictures and instructions there should be that empty white plug near the glove box or under it.
Is there another way to connect the aux wire?
Thanks a lot in advance.
