Unknown missing parts
So I bought my cl and the infotainment was non op I got the stereo part working but none of the other stuff does and I know I am missing components the plugs are there but nothing else is but I don't even know what is missing if anyone could take pictures and label the trunk mounted modules all I have is amp and Cd changer I'm also trying to figure out where the park assist controler goes even better would be if someone had a diagram of all the controllers and modules so I could see what's missing what I have etc it's a 2001 Cl500

my audio deos work but i have two coax ends and 3 or 4 parallel port style connectors. also i want to out a phone system back in and have the nav work. i would love to be able to put a more modern phone nav etc but with the d2b and bose combo that seems unlikely. also i wasnt sure if the park assist module was back there as i want to get that working again also.

Buy an Android head unit, bypass all the stuff in the boot (trunk) and have a better system than came as standard.
It's what I am doing.

I have been looking into that option and I do have a fiber optic bose amp but from what I can glean that decoder is for MOST based systems and I am pretty sure mine is D2B

He won't have fiber optic, 2001 (UK or USA) had a different COMAND system, so his wiring requirements may be slightly different. The conversion to the fiber optic bus was MY2004(UK 2003.)

The original W220 and W215 used the COMAND 2.5 and used d2b fiber optics.

That's not correct that's when they put in the Most system but before that they had D2b

The problem with the Bose system, is the Bose amp...they stop working after some years and repair costs. I was able to remove my complete system, with non working Bose amp, sell it and buy the Android unit and a new amp (not strictly necessary) for the same money.
