Yes it does. It's working very well except using the phone through the screen's interface is terrible. As mentioned earlier in this thread, the sound is only coming through one speaker which makes it very difficult to hear.
Overall though, a great product.
It looks like I have one of the first models without the updated box. The Command interface is hit or miss. I'm going to contact the retailer and see if they can provide the updated hardware.
The Command interface is not consistently turning on. It should be present in this picture.

@Damir85 and @DP63AMG, I've read about similar issues in other sections of the forum (and in YouTube comments) in most cases the problem was caused by loose or pinched data cable coming from the COMAND unit. It might be worthwhile to uninstall the unit, check all the connections one more time and perform a dry run with the unit not fully installed to see if you get video from the COMAND interface.
I e mailed them and am still waiting on a repy.. are there any good pics of the facelift install or finished product? Most i couldn find are for the prefacelift. I'd like to see how it mounts and how far it sits out from the dash.

There are YouTube videos showing this unit on a post facelift w204. Just search.
Have you received your screen, yet? if so, have you installed it, yet? if so, how well does it work? Have they addressed thebother issues on the older models? Like the speed reading in KM and not mileage or being able to use the front dashcam app with front dash cameras? And of course all the other reported issues, has those been resolved as well?

sorry guys i have been beyond wrapped up...
yes, i got the unit....the shipping from China went out on a Friday and i received on a Monday, as in 3 days so i was VERY VERY VERY impressed with that(DHL)....the unit i received was a pre-production unit with the updated hardware and running Android6...HOWEVER, after about 2days they emailed me an update which is Android7.1...!!!!!! i have yet to be able to update it but will try today hopefully. The functionality of the unit is pretty bad-***...the rear view camera display is SOOOO much higher quality than the flip up unit AND you can enable the steering input which gives you the lines which move with direction to show where you are heading. Installation was a no brainer and it linked right up with Comand....The best way to think of this system is like this.......you will have 2 stand alone systems when you install this, your factory system and the new system. You can run all your factory stuff just like before with no issues. What you gain is basically a huge android tablet with 1000X the functionality your factory system had and then some...I have been an igo fan for years and this system is killer compared to the ****ty factory nav setup. bluetooth is flawless, bluetooth streaming is flawless...i am beyond satisfied. I will update here soon!!!!

Thanks for the report - it sounds like a great unit.
Did you receive installation instructions or did you have to watch a series of videos? I am considering this mod but I have never done any interior mods so don't know how I would go removing trim pieces without the right tools. I would consider taking it to a car audio specialist if I could show them the instructions easily.
Thanks for taking the trouble to let us know.
Question, if you have the facelift bose system are those actually functional speakers to the left and the right of the old display? If so , it looks like they are removed, does sound quality suffer any?
Also not to start a flame war, but is this the same system Chris is going to have with the 7.1 android? Ive been following multiple threads on the various systems..
I emailed the carlife-mall place but have not received any responses to my inquiry

No, they are not speakers. Just little trim plates that slide out. This bigger screen is a great idea as the removal of those plates create another 4” or so of lateral space.
JP how do the new trim pieces that come with the kit look? (nvm, you have a PFL I forgot)

I changed out the silver box and it didn't resolve the problem. The installer double checked for any pinched wires so that was not the issue. I really don't know what to do at this point.....

I chatted with the chines and they cant help
What you can do is oonce you start your car just press the ON button on the original unit and you will se the old interface on the new screen
Press it for like 10 sec

When I ordered mine the receipt and confirmation email all stated that the unit comes with a 12 month warranty, is that something that would also apply to you? (I haven't had to try to play the warranty card yet so I can't say if they honor it)

Never going to order anything from them again
Same goes for CKM
They record if you send it back and put a block on you
Stay awaY

oh wow, that's pretty harsh ... so it sounds like if you attempt to use the warranty, they might/will not give it to you and then they don't want to do business with you further.
