Talking Where did you get your EURO COMAND? All questions answered!

Maybe a Mod can sticky this for furure refrence!?!?!!?!?!?

I bought from non-sponsor advertisement and I recieved the unit in a decent time. Yes, it came from lithuania and I was a bit scared, but I went through it and I got one for less than 1/2 of what some people sell them for on here.

Euro command part #'s:
Model 7039:
This unit has no TV input and no output for headrest TV's. You can play DVD's just fine once the engineering menu is enabled.

Model 6036:
This unit has TV input and Aux out plugs so you can add headrest TV's if you want. You can play DVD's just fine once the engineering menu is enabled.

Other usefull info:
1. Click here for the step by step guide to activate the EURO COMAND
(Thanks to steve.link for this!)
2. Only some early 2003 US cars come with a DVD player. so if you have a 2003.5 or later CLS or E-class these instructions WILL NOT WORK ON YOUR CAR UNLESS YOU SWAP TO A EURO COMAND. Dont ask "Does this work on my 2005 W211 car with US comand?"
3. It should cost less than $200 for dealer install.

Why am I writing this? I get about 4-5 PM's a week asking for advice. I am happy to give it, But hopefully this can clear up some of the basics.

Questions? Post in here, Ill reply or one of the other people that know about Euro comands will.

Evan

Anyone have any experience with ?????? on ebay?

Also, will the 7023 model work just like the 6036 in that I can add headrest monitors or rear monitor?

Thanks in advance.

I am not knocking the sponsors, but when I can buy a Euro comand for 1/3 of the price the "sponsors" sell them for, I am just trying to look out for fellow W211 and CLS owners. I thought maybe, just maybe the board managment would care. Besides, I am not "advertising" for any company or person, I am just telling people my personal experiance.

Sorry amdeutsch, take a look around. This site is chock full of members sharing positive experiences with "non-sponsors". That's what makes a forum helpful. A short while ago I posted my positive experience with MB of Traverse City and would refer customers there all day long. They're not a site sponsor and I don't recall being accused of "advertising" for them, nor did a moderator pull out the dealers name. Come to think of it, Mercedes Benz isn't even a site sponsor. Perhaps you should go through every posting and edit out their name. We wouldn't want any members to "advertise" for them. Some guy buys a product off eBay, has a good experience with it, wants to share it with other members, and you pull it? Give me a break.

Sponsors pay for our community. There are a few rules we need to stick yo and that is only fair. If you want to share, share the experience. If you want to "hook a brother up", use the PM. It is that simple.

Thats all I did, was share my experiance... But it was censored. Not cool, and dosent make any sence.

Anyone on here that said they got great dealer service at "XXXX dealer" should also be censored. Double standards are a *****, I am not getting anything out of saying where I got my euro from, I am just looking out for fellow members on here. Thats the only thing I am guily of.


Now this thread sucks, thanks to someone "over-modding" this post.

I do understand the point though as without the sponsors the site would go bye-bye and that would suck.
That being said it is the moderators job to do just that and we all have to respect that otherwise anarchy,death and destruction might befall our little place here on the WWW

Jangy, thanks for reinforcing my POINT. If "There are a few rules we need to stick yo [to]", than lets stick to them and apply them to all members on all instances of merely mentioning a non-sponsor. "It is that simple."

Please, tell me where in the rules does it say that I cannot recommend a place that I did business with?

If I am wrong, please show me!

Example:
My dealer is R+H Motorcars in Baltimore, and they do great work. I recommend them. (will that get edited out?)

I would add don't even bother paying a dealer $200 bucks to swap a COMAND. All you need is 30 minutes or less and a torx wrench.

You can search one of my earlier posts on instructions and a step by step picture guide.

Nice editing job by the mods of my response to 2manytoys... leave in all the good stuff about 'em and take out all the not so good. Why not just delete the whole post or thread? Former hall monitors??
