2004 CL600 - HELP PLEASE!

Howdy all! I’m new to this forum and just purchased a 2004 w215 with only 19k original miles. The car was owned by two others in its lifetime and I’m super excited about it. We all know the build quality is amazing, however, the tech is quite antiquated. Accordingly, I was hoping someone can point me in the right direction for Navigation Head Units with carplay. I’m looking for something that looks factory - though would also consider something like a floating screen if there was an appropriate installation kit.

As an FYI, I hate gaps in installs and cheap plastic harnesses so trying to avoid that if possible!

Any help would be appreciated!

How entitled can someone be?

6 posts, and immediately begging for help to replace a head unit?!.

Don't make posts like this begging for help unless it's something serious, like the car's not starting, or it's sitting on the ground, or you're faced with a decision on something you're doing that could potentially cause long-term damage if done wrong (like starting the car without hydraulic fluid).

This place is a joke.
Repairing the ABC system will cost more than the car is worth, the radio will be the least of your problems.
