c300
2016 c300

I have a few questions hoping to receive some answers....

1.is it possible to upgrade the display in the c300 from the little screen to the 8.4 inch screen...I dont have the MM package...

2.is it possible to install the apple CarPlay without china products or eBay products?

3.is it plug and play when swapping the standard audio to the burmester(cant seem to find an actual write up)

im coming out of a 2015 Camaro 2ss into a 2016 c300 with only a sunroof and sports amg wheels, I am pretty disappointed because I needed a new car since a lady ran a red light and hit me head on this was the current option I had...

I have done headlight swapping before on the camaro from the stock halogen to the led ones...so I will be doing it to the c300 because I am back to the despicable halogens...

1 - should be since some folks have gone from 8.4 to larger.
2 - no idea.
3 - not quite, you'll need more speakers and additional stuff. You'd be better off going fully aftermarket and tailoring that to your needs.

You'll need to search the forum for the threads that pertain to what you want to do. Condolences about the Camaro. Good luck on the changes.

Do you already have the car? All three are big enough hassles where (in your shoes), I'd keep looking. If CarPlay were vital to me, I'd find out which models can be managed with just the OBD2 plug-in, not the interior box swap. You definitely want the COMAND option, if you can get it, which comes with the larger screen. It's not a simple matter to swap from the 7 to the 8.4.

There's a thread in this forum about the headlight change.
