C32 AMG
TV tuner install

Hi Guys,

I have a '02 C32 with COMAND, live in Aust. Absolutely brilliant car....

I just bought a TV tuner (the factory OEM tuner with wiring and antenna).

I am about to embark on installing this tv tuner. Just wondering if anyone has an installation manual or a guide?

I am pretty good with electrics and I know the TV tuner is fitted in the trunk somewhere??

Can anyone help?

Sure does Tariq...

The wiring I have fits the C2 connector. So I'd imagine after installing the tv tuner + antenna it's a matter of connecting the wiring.

Do you know how to get to the back of the COMAND unit to install this cable, ie do I have to remove the COMAND unit?? Do you need special tools?

If you are living in Sydney then you can hook up with my Benz installer.

Do you have all the parts.

- TV tuner
- TV tuner bracket
- trunk liner
- antennas
- video cable
- connectors
- crimp pins (COMAND, TUNER, FUSE)
- bolts and screws for the above
- fuse holder
- fuse
- power wire
- earth wire

I have a spare bracket and a trunk liner.

tuners for your 04 would be extremely rare and hard to find. You can keep checking around at various sites. You can install it but you would need to swap your comand with one that has the TV button active or get your comand's button activated.
