Media Interface Plus Question Please ?

My C300 does not have the Navi system on it. So, is there anyway possible to have the Media Interface Plus Installed or is this a lost cause?

First, give your VIN to the MB dealer and they will tell you if the Media Interface Plus will work with your C300. Some early W204s with the Audio 20 unit cannot be upgraded.

Good it is compatible, found a copy of the Media Interface Plus manual, should answer all of the questions.

I have the iPod interface, which is fine sonically BUT lame in every other department. If you like the MI Plus, then let everyone know, maybe I will upgrade. Thanks.

I 'm running a Droid X through share wire and I can make calls and here Pandora. But I can't see what's playing nor see my play list. I can't change anything by using the steering wheel.

Supposedly everything runs through the Media Knob on the console with the Media Plus.
