Are MP3 CDs playable in W211 CD player (standard or Harman Kardon variant)?

Greetings,

For those who have received their W211s - has anybody tried playing an MP3 CD in the stock or HK stereo? By MP3 CD I mean a CD-ROM loaded with MP3 files, which can number subtantially more than the number of tracks on a conventional Audio CD (only 74 minutes on the latter).

I ask since there's no auxiliary input apparently on these cars, and since you can't practically use an external MP3 player with a cassette adapter since the system requires the cassette door to be latched *closed* in order to play.

Comments?

thanks!

I believe that you should wait for navigation to play such disks. And how somebody posted, the navigation will provide aux input.
