Some "inside" information regarding rare OEM factory exotic options that most of us think that they are not available for our w204 c-class
I also provide option codes and part numbers.


OPTION: TV TUNER [860] [882] etc
tv tuner: A2048205285
mounting bracket: A2045450340
wiring harness: A2405405106

OPTION: REAR VIEW CAMERA/BACKUP CAMERA [218] [319E]
camera: A2048200797
control module: A2048207226
bracket: A2045451540
wiring harness: A2044406706 + A2044406306

OPTION: DISTRONIC/PROXIMITY CONTROLLED CRUIZE CONTROL [219]
Distronic module (radar sensor): A2045400017

I hope this helps! Time to retrofit these options or to include them with a new order!

Enjoy your car with rare exotic options!

Is that TV tuner PAL or NTSC? Either way, it's old-school and won't work in the US of A for much longer, if at all.

Remember the switch-over to Digital? TV Tuner seems like a bad idea now!

A "204" part number tuner would be digital but not necessarily US compatible (remember several European countries have had digital only for a few years).

Maybe, but Europe has long been PAL, and that's not compatible to us.

so when I order a new C, I can just ask for these? (I want the backup camera), (I'll bring the part number to the dealer)

I'm in Canada BTW

And will these be available on the 2010's?

Very interesting... Many thanks for the info

I am interested in rear/backup camera.

Anyone as buyed and/or installed one of these kits parts ?

i definately want the factory back up camera as well! now...to find somebody to install it...

All available in ROW - Why not US - who knows - The euro tuner is HD PAL.

I want that Distronic

Distronic is great!

I would also add the following:

A0375456528 book housing RUECKFAHRKAMERA4 PIN MQS; B84 / 3
A0165454126 contact spring 0.25-0.5 MM2 MQS
A2047400993 Rear Moulding

did anyone got the distronic installed in a C 204 ?

has been replaced by A2165402945

Oh man, tell me it's retrofitable! I would die for this....

I have now buyed Distronic controlmudule/Radar. Now I need part numers for wiring harness and some other stuff what I do need? I have W204 MY12. Do I need SCN coding?

Please If anyone have information share it to me. I want made this Retrofit..

I know I'm late to the game, but can the rear proximity sensor and alert system be retrofitted, as a kit, or will I need to buy a "new" car?

I just purchased a 2010 C204 4Matic with only 18,200 miles on the clock on May 18, 2015.

Thank you for any thoughts on my dilemma.

My 2013 c250 came with a factory backup camera...

Can I guess this was NOT in response to my question regarding availability of a kit to install proximity sensor(s) on a 2010 C300 4Matic?


(Note: My question had nothing to do with what others' cars came with; only the possibility to retrofit proximity-sensing system to a car WITHOUT it.)

This thread is from 2009, maybe it wasnt a option back then lol

I was not replying to your post... I was replying to the OP's post.

I did not even look at the date lol.
