Phone mirroring / HDMI video interface
Hello,
Has anyone purchased phone mirroring / HDMI video interface equipment? If so, I'd like advice/feedback in terms of user experience, what to keep an eye out for, and also where you purchased it from and price.
I've come across the following on eBay retailing for $405, and although it states plug and play not entirely sure.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Ben...-/261768283633
I mainly intend to use this to connect my phone on which I use Waze for navigation extensively. I understand going the Garmin SD for navigation is an alternative route, but honestly, I love Waze much more and it's a lot more practical.
Thanks in advance.

I saw the unit you linked to above, but that's for video only (no audio). Audio (through the vehicle's audio system) would require additional wiring/module etc.
I also found the following options:

Hoping someone has actual experience/feedback on one of these options (or another module).
TIA!

Another bump - I'm also interested in this, most of the information I've come across so far mentioned only the Comand system - is this even possible for Audio 20? How invasive is this, do I just pull apart the center console or half the car? (it's still on warranty I'd rather not lose it)
