'06 CLK phone/Bluetooth question
I've left a deposit on a 2006 CLK350 with the following options:
289 - wood/leather steering wheel
530 - DVD/Comand system
293 - rear side airbags
319 - lighting package (bi-Xenon)
326 - Premium Package (6 disc CD)
873 - Heated front seats
889 - Keyless Go System
The car isn't "pre-wired" for the Mercedes-Benz hands-free phone and, although I understand there will be a high quality aftermarket system available in about 45 days, I'd really like to have the factory system installed. Does anyone know if this is possible (I guess anything is...) and how much it would cost?
I'm leary of the dealer since:
a) they're a car dealer and will tell you ANYTHING, and
b) they told me that their net cost for the iPod kit (parts only) is $500.00. They then mark that up and add an installation charge
I could only imagine what they would want to charge to add the phone kit...
