Arh... Guess you are Swedish.
I'm Danish. Now we'll see if our deliveries are caught in customs 😁
But still, with taxes it should still be cheaper than to order through CKM, and I think we also got the upgraded model.

Im from Norway
I have a backup camera, but i would like a front camera , but i think the screen does not support that, but i will try.
Are you looking for somkind of OEM backupcamera or something else?
If you intend to install just a regular backupcamera, its quite easy, on the screen there is a cabel for that as far as i know, just a RCA cable from the screen and back to the camera, and for the power there is a fusebox in the rear right side.
I have done that with 2 of my previous cars 1 2012 E-class coupe and on a 2010 E-class wagon,the only difference is that i had COMAND in both of these cars.

They are sending the goods with DHL and they usually do the customs taxes, and i now i have to pay about 25% in taxes +Handling, and all depents what the seller put in as value of the goods, but it still think it will be cheaper
And yes i also think this is the upgraded version

Awesome. How long did the installation take?

How does it react when you use the hardware buttons on the dash. Does it automatic shift?
And how about the shortcut on the joystick to change channel. Does it come up when you use Google maps?

I used about 3 hours, struggled to get the big cable in rigth position
The reaction of the hardware buttons is quite normal
Not testet with google maps yet, and i struggle to get sound from the device, only sound from OEM, mabe i have forgotten something
I did not use this USB and do not know what its for



And i did not use this one either


But i used this one, but only the green Fakra and the USB for Mirrorlink, the USB i pulled out near the passenger side net storage


Have sent you a PM TorbenK

I believe this one is for sound for sound from Android apps, like Maps, etc.

Did yours come with installation instructions? If so, can you post?

Yes agree, had to think a little, and then it came to my mind.
No installation instructions, had to guess my way.
But what about the USB? I alredy have one from the screen, that i used for Phone mirroring
