Is there any reason my 2003 C32 w/ Command does not display the turns, etc on the speedo? What am I missing?!? I want that!

If I'm not mistaken, it's something Steve activated using the Star Diagnostic. If you got one second hand and just replaced the factory head unit, it would not have the display...not sure otherwise.

It's a OEM unit that came stock with the car. Steve, any idea what I need to have activated? I want to go chew some *** at the dealership to get it fixed.

Do you have the Navigation screen show up at all on your MFD, if so what does it display (Active, Off etc)?

Might just need the latest firmware update from MB? I know Steve put in an update disc that took 45 minutes to load, then did a bunch of stuff with the Star Diagnostic. I didn't pay attention to details though...

getting the nav to display in the IC is a variable stting in the IC itself - and has nothing to do with the comand software...

get the dealer to activate the navigation option in the IC

Ian, Blake, the pleasure was ours (as my sister wrote before)

We never carry impact strips in stock. We order them car specific, for which we need to know:
* color code of the car
* whether or not you want the chrome inserts
* whether or not you have parktronic on your car

The bumper strips get ordered after receipt of payment.

greetingz,

BigSis

What did you do, Carlos? Scrape something?

Anyways, send us an email - we will help you obtaining the strip. Of course.
