C238 E300
RCA Jacks C238

I'm new on this forum and as I have a non-touch screen in my vehicle I'm looking for a method to mirror my phone on the Command system.

I've found one solution but this relies on having RCA jacks in the car. Does anyone know if the C238 E300 has RCA jacks somewhere?

Does anyone have any ideas on a solution?

Would an RCA to USB adapter do the trick? Amazon has several, not expensive.

I've read some great reviews about this adapter and will probably be getting it for my car.

The_Judge, I've considered this if I'm unable to find RCA jacks on my vehicle or if they were not included in the specifications when the vehicle was manufactured.

Sportsman0202, the device you've posted is a wireless connection for CarPlay/Android Auto. I'm wanting to mirror my device as this is gives all features, apps, etc rather than the limited options available with CarPlay/Android Auto.

This is the link to the solution I am looking to do. The vehicle shown is an earlier S series Mercedes Benz, however the same principle can easily be used in my C238. The solution, in the link, is a well thought out and elegant solution as it does not rely on third party devices having to interact/connect with the Command system.
