Btw, the notification also says it takes 1 hour of labour (thats what my part guy told me).
E and CLS are to be released sometime in August.

ordered mine from Germany Thru MNG on the MBCanada forum. Cost was $300CAD and installation was no more that an hour.
Unit works great with only 1 fault so far. I have noticed that sometimes when I start the car a msg comes up in the display (in IPOD and NAV Mode) saying "Please Wait" half the time after a few seconds it disapears and you have full function. The other half of the time it just hangs and you don't get conrol of the IPOD or get NAV display in the instrument pod. I discovered that when starting the car if you turn the key to the first position and wait a few seconds until everything powers up, the "Please Wait" disappears and full function is restored. Continue the ignition sequence and away you go. Just slow down your start sequence a little and you should be fine
Hope this helps
