So i just bought a 2005 CLK55 and am exploring my options to get bluetooth in the car. my car has the SOS button on top, road side assistance and service buttons in armrest, and phone buttons on steering wheel. but i cant seem to find the place that any bluetooth module would plug into. its not in the top of the armrest or against the back wall of the bottom of the armrest. any way to find if my car was optioned with this?

If not, what are my options for bluetooth without having the teleaid. i still want sound to go through the stereo and be as integrated as possible, ive tried those little bluetooth modules you put on your sunvisor and im not a huge fan of those.

thanks for the help. ill post pics of the new car up soon.

if you open your center console there is a false door near the front on top (black felt material)....there are alot of posts and threads on this already......if you send me (PM) your VIN i can see if it was pre wired....i know my 05 is

here is your data card man i didn't see it...i think the 05's came pre wired...the last pdf should also help...go to page 18-19-20...on page 20 see if you have the connectors (A & B)

Hey Flame3g

looked inside the armrest. below are pictures of what i have. It looks like its wired so do all i have to do is buy the cradle then buy a bluetooth adapter that fits the cradle?

thanks

I did not know the '05 has pre-wiring for bluetooth. I thought the compartment is for the mb motorola phone and the teleaid/sos button is nothing more than the fancy on-star found on gm vehicles.

FYI: if you called up MB and let them know you just bought a pre-owned vehicle, they will activate the teleaid feature for 3 months free (I cannot remember what it is called now).
