?Satellite radio on stock head unit w215
Hello I have an 03 w215 cl55 and I'm wondering if anyone knows how I would be able to get satellite radio into it without changing my entire head unit out. Thanks for the help.

On a 2003, there is no way to get factory SAT unless you replace the head unit.
The problem becomes that the 2004 and later head units that support SAT (with additional equipment), use the MOST fiber system meaning you would need to replace every component (AMP, CD Changer, etc) in the fiber chain to MOST. 2003 uses a D2B fiber ring whereas 2004 changed to MOST. Not compatible with each other.
