Yes, it will work on your 09 C63, provided that you have the MM Package and iPod integration kit.

not trying to be a party pooper.. but the MMI will NOT work with an 09 US C63. it will work with the Canadian 09 model. I have the MM pack and the ipod but unless you have the option code 518 you are out of luck. and if you have an 09 US model you wont have code 518. that wasnt offered in the US until 2010. sucks...

This is contradicting, because Mercedes Compatibility Matrix dated 9/1/10 states the MIP for MY09-11 W204. What it should state is with option code 518. I know that it works fine in my 2010 C63. I can see where the confusion is occuring.

MIP FOR 30 BUCKS!

ok.. now that i got your attentions! :p

this is what a fellow member did.. ok so you don't get the text on screen and the iphone 4 contact uploaded, BUT... it's a VERY big jump to the MIP's features for 1/12 of the price!

That's if you have AUX port, but if you have [057] iPod Integration Kit instead it won't work.

I have had the MIP in my 09 C63 since October and it works great. I just purchased the video cable for it, but haven't tested it yet, that's the only thing I can't confirm.

As mentioned, you need the MM package and UCI Media interface, option 518. As far as I know all US 09 C63's did not have the option 518 available, but you can have it retrofitted, which is fairly easy to do.

Here is the part you would need to retrofit a 09 C63 to add the UCI

I have a 2011 GLK without the media interface and was looking at the UCI from the comandonline site, did you install it or had a MB dealer do it for you? did you have to order anything else to complete the install? if you don't mind me asking what was the final cost including shipping, duty and taxes from the UK?

Thanks

This looks nothing like the MIP that you get from MB, looks like this will have to be installed, with someone that has skills.

jaisonline

can anyone recommend online dealer parts sites (like circle bmw for those owners) to order this part?

You can try getmercedesparts.com

You know.. I just realized something.. that site.. has this in small print...
"Genuine Mercedes C Class Parts. Powered by Mercedes-Benz of Annapolis"

I bought my car, and buy my parts from them (they are 10 miles from my house)..

I also would look at, http://www.mbonlineparts.com/ which oddly enough, looks identical to getmercedesparts.com.... (at least the part selection areas do), however that site is run by a MB dealer in New Jersey..

Do I smell a conspiracy here.. Okay, maybe not a conspiracy, but I suspect MBUSA decided that rather then let aftermarket sites eat into the lucrative parts business, they would allow dealerships to sell discounted parts (at a discount they specify.. so in reality, there is no competition) directly to the public.

Based on those 2 different sites, one based in NJ, the other based in MD, that have no corporate ties other then being MB dealers, have the exact same price, I used the front Rotors for a non pp C63.. both are priced at $670)...

So.. I will take off my tinfoil hate now

A further google (or froogle) search, shows that the rotors are priced identically on most of the various parts sites, and that many of those (ebay excluded obviously), have MB affiliation, rather then being a strictly parts store like Autozone or whatever...

The ipod kit in my '10 C63 will play tunes but does not charge my iphone. Will this adapter fix this?
