'10 C300 4M -> '01 Audi Allroad Bi-Turbo
Newbie - Purchased Universal Media Interface - Question

Hello MB Fans -

I finally sold my ML and bought a Certified 2010 Mars Red C300 Sport 4Matic P1. The only thing I didn't like about this car is that it didn't come with the MM kit. My dealer had a UMI in stock that they wanted to get rid of so I'm having them put it in. ($1100 installed...think that's their cost)

My question is about the possibility of running a video source in to the unit to display on the 5" LCD for a backup camera or iPod video. I'm seeing it done here in this YouTube video from Feb 2010 but I can't seem to find any information on how or if this can be done.

Has anyone integrated video in to the 5" LCD on their W204?

Thanks for the help!

- Peter

PS - I'm too ashamed to put up pictures until I get some of the early mods done...black out the trim, etc. All your cars are too cool for mine right now.

We have the unit, called a VIM (Video In Motion) kit. Check our site for prices.

Thanks guys that was easy! Looks like Brian from Cartronics has the gear. I'll report back on how it turns out and how the interface is.
