bluetooth for 05 e500AWD w211

Hello guys, my benz didn't come with option 518 or any factory interface, didn't come with Nav either but it has the aux in glove box. Is there any way to install Bluetooth with full functionality on steering wheel? any help or hints will be appreciated....thnx!!!

No it won't. Only a factory retrofit will. But will cost you an arm and a leg. Maybe even a wing.

Get this. Plugs into your aux input in the glove. Plug a cig USB adapter to it for power and pair your phone to it. You can stream your music over Bluetooth. And take hands free calls over your cars stereo. But your steering wheel buttons will not function.

Thnx for the input guys. I have seen advertized aftermarket radio units with nav, bluetooth and everything else designed specifically for the w211 for around $500. Are any of those any good. They claim everything will work just like OEM equopment...your ideas will be appreciated...thnx again 👽

If you are talking about the ones on ebay. I'm sure it's low quality compared to oem. Get the eonon brand or whatever it's called. And make sure it's form factor matches your curent head unit. A friend of mine installed one. He is happy with it. http://m.ebay.com/itm/221353448033?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1It's pretty much plug and play.
