I'm guessing that space is supposed to contain the 360 camera view from atop. But for users who did not opt for it why should they have a half empty screen? Benz mayne

Plausible for the 360. I might go find one to test drive and confirm.

I have the 360 and the top-down view does fill in the space on the left.

They've taken the, "add a filler piece for optional equipment on the dash" to an entirely new level!

Unfortunately that's how it's going to look unless equipped with the 360 camera; it's absolutely ridiculous, no reason to have the camera only use that percentage of the screen.

I also feel like the clarity is a bit grainier than the pre-facelift W205.

Maybe if and when they fix this they can also turn off the chime and message to remember my key. Seems unnecessary since my key never leaves my pocket.

That's MB paying you back for not ordering the 360 degree camera. It's a constant reminder. Next time you'll know what options to tick.
