Unhappy 2008 - 2010 C63 Dashboard Question
Long story short, I'm not a big fan of the 2008 - 2010 c class dashboard. I have the 2013 c250 and looking to upgrade to an AMG. I'm looking for a 2008 - 2010 C63 AMG but I don't like how the navigation screen pops up in the 2008 - 2010 models. Is there any aftermarket things i can change it out with? Thank you in advance.


Sorry if this has been asked before, couldn't find anything on it.

Why not just go for a 2012+ one then? That way you avoid the headbolt issue and don't have to spend extra money to try and change your dashboard.

Amazing at the different views on the popup display. I prefer it over the FL dashes to the point that it may keep me from ever getting a '12-'14 c63

I can't remember where I saw it, but someone had a fixed screen put in place of the current popup, recessed into the dash, if that makes sense. You could always just do something like that. I believe that was a non-nav car though, so it had the smaller screen to start.

^ Yep that was a car without navigation.
Just buy a facelift C63. You'll have less headache trying to fit a different screen.
