If you have a 2012 C Class with COMAND, yes it will look just like the picture I posted. If not then it will be different but it can still be upgraded.

You should note that it takes like 2-3 hours for both updates to flash so plan to come in a second car if you want to explore around with your wife.

FYI - Although I posted a picture of both the HU and the cluster upgraded, the procedure this thread was created for will only update the headunit. Getting the dash/cluster to look like mine is a whole different procedure that takes just as long as the HU and is even more complicated due to extra options such as ILS, Blind Spot, Park Assist, Lane Assist, etc. Not all cars use the same dash coding.

Since you said you are getting a CLS, I'd need to find out the file names for a 2013-2014 CLS with the update colors. HU should be simple since it is the same hardware.

2012 C63 AMG Coupe

Hi guys, does anyone is Phoenix know how to do this? I just traded in my 2013 C250 for a 2102 C63 (woohoo!) but the colors are driving me nuts especially since I had the silver/red setup for a while. Not to mention the C63 has a red/black interior!

Any help would be really appreciated!
