USB cable adapter??

I have a 2010 c63 amg, is there a cable that connects in the glove box that has a usb end on it? Do they make one? The adapter that came with the car has a ipod and aux adapter. If there is such a cable, where would I get one? I have called the dealer and they don't seem to know of such a cable.

All three cables should have been included in your C63 purchase. Try to avoid paying anything extra.

OK gents, it may not be typically included, but my dealer included them all at no extra cost. Just my experience.

Nope...taking the military sale route with a factory pickup. Perhaps the cables are a small perk for us mil types, along with the 10% discount on all opts. However, only US specs and US options are sold to us like other US vehicles through MBUSA.

That's odd.

The 2010's in the US with the Multimedia Package get a single cable that has both the updated iPhone/iPod connection and 3.5mm connection combined. No USB included.

Got it. I noted that when I first met the dealer. Not everyone has an iPod, therefore I made the point only providing an iPod cable made no sense. So he agreed to provide all three. Doesn't make sense to me to have only an iPod cable to take advantage of a $3k option on the car. At that option's price, every cable possible to access the MM paackage should be provided with no fuss. I think it's a good argument and one dealers can easily accommodate; IMO.

Australian spec cars come stock with a kit containing all three cables, iPod, AUX, & USB.

The part number for the kit is:
A 001 827 70 04

Individual part numbers are:

AUX
A 001 827 66 04

USB
A 001 827 67 04

iPod
A 001 827 68 04


Sorry I should have read the whole thread, I now see the Canadian part numbers have already been given in post #9

It’s a cable with a 3.5mm 4-pin jack plug used for audio and video devices that send their source via a 3.5mm 4-pin cable. You press AUX on the command system to access the device.

AUX = Auxiliary

I very much doubt it.

The literature with my kit shows the pins on the 4pin jack plug are assigned as follows:

Pin 1 – Audio L
Pin 2 – Audio R
Pin 3 – Video
Pin 4 – Common earth and screen.

Apart from the car’s own DVD player, my user’s manual for ‘Comand APS’ makes no mention of supporting any video formats from any other devices.

I’ve not used the cable but as I far as I can tell, everything you plug in, is audio only.

I know this thread is way old, but I'm not sure which cable I need either. I have the C280 2008 and I don't have any cable/port in my glove box. However I have something in the console, within the armrest. Pic attached. Any info on what I need would be greatly appreciated.

I used to have an auxillary cable. One day I couldn't find it...don't even know where it went and where it plugs to.
