Badly in need of some mod help! Looking To Buy..
I haven’t posted in a few years been really busy I guess but I wanted to make some updates however with all these new mods I am very confused. I really love my car body and I don’t want a new one just yet.
Model - 2001 clk320
PROJECTOR HEAD LIGHT & FOG LAMPS & REAR LED LIGHTS
There are so many lights on ebay I’m not sure which ones to buy (manufacture)
Are they easy to install?
Anyone do installs in Los Angeles?
Where do you purchase replacement bulbs when they burn out?
iPOD CONNECTION – replace 6 disc cd
I remember hearing about a Dension system that would connect to my navi but was told I wouldn’t be able to read track listings if I had a lot of songs.
Have they updated this to read all track listings?
Any other manufactures make this unit now?
PHONE KIT – still using UHI w/Siemens S66 Phone
Steve from MBenz.NL upgraded my UHI phone kit but I have to use a Siemens S66 Phone.
Have they updated the cradles for blackberry phones?
BREAK CALIPERS – covers or paint.. hmm
My calipers are getting rusted and looks like crap through my AMG’s
Do those red caliper covers on ebay really work?
Which are the best and where should I purchase them?
TV TUNER – Looking for a TV tuner for my Euro Nav
I heard there were TWO versions of this tuner and one was better than the other, not sure.
Anyone have a good one for sale?
Thanks!!

There are DB2 Ipod units available that replace the CD changer, look on Ebay, I see them there from time to time. From what I understand, it gives you full control of the Ipod via comand.
The UHI stuff is discontinued, so don't expect any new upgrades/updates for it, what is available is about it. If I were you, I would replace the cradle with a bluetooth puck, that way you can use any phone that has bluetooth capability. You would need a euro bluetooth puck, so take a look on German or UK Ebay.
The euro TV tuners are on Ebay, US, UK and German. the only value is the ability to have two aux AV inputs accessible via the Comand. The TV tuner won't work in the US, I get one or two stations on mine and that is iffy even.
