The Best of Mercedes & AMG
I have the homelink setup on W203 and my sister's W208, but I couldn't get it to work on w204 or the Odyssey we had. I gave up and just leave a garage door remote in the car.
the mirror i replaced was a manual dimming mirror w/o homelink.... the old manual mirror has the identical wiring harness as the new homelink/auto-dimming mirror..... it is just a matter of removing and unplugging the old mirror and then installing and plugging in the new one.... the hands-free bluetooth was unaffected by this mod
the mirror is held by a spring into the car, a tip i found was that you can compress the spring with a c-clamp which engages a smaller clip that holds the spring while its compressed to ease in installation (this will make more sense when you see the part)
anyhow, for those c300 base model owners looking to add homelink..... i was able to find a part of off LKQ from ebay for ~$80..... the mirror i transplanted came from an '08 (no compass)..... and it was successfully installed in my 2010 c300.... i tried to do a lot of research on the internet (there isn't much), but after much planning, it took less than 30 minutes to install..... hardest part was figuring out how to disassemble the overhead control unit, turns out it swings away on a hinge to reveal all the wiring... had i known that in the beginning the mirror would've took less than 10 minutes to install....
