When you open the passenger side door there should be a panel that can be taken off .. If it's like my 2010 there should be a jack in there connected to the iPod connector .. If possible provide a pic or two

The jack in your glove box is for audio.

It is an auxiliary audio input for plugging in an ipod ect.

The 3.5 mm mini jack is only for stereo audio. Video was not available in 2009, nor was MB's UMI Universal Media Interface adaptor compatible for adding video to the folding display in the W204 until late 2010.
Some video interfaces are available, here's one on eBay, some threads in MBW have reported successful installs with different interfaces.
