Keyless Go Upgrade?

Like the convenience... Has anybody done this upgrade/ any idea on how much would it cost?

Is this just the feature dealer can turn on, or it requires the whole new module to be installed?

I'm not sure what after market ones but I asked the dealer about this. They said they have to replace the whole locks in the car (forgot the dollar amount).

Someone tried doing this and the cost to do it just makes it not logical. You also need to replace a control unit somewhere to make the keyless go work.

Not really worth it it's a plus on mine but honestly a pain to use have to wait for people to shut the door to lock the car.

Yes, it IS possible. Like others have stated, the cost to retrofit is quite a bit more than having it when it was installed at the factory. You can contact Steve at mbenznl.com@gmail.com

He has supplied me numerous retrofits for my 2013 C350 coupe as well as my 2005 C230 Kleemann Sport Sedan

All OEM parts from Mercedes. He is located in the Netherlands and he ships promptly

I wonder if all the antenna needed to detect the fob are even in the cars without it?
