there is a board sponsor that sells that module. It also allows you to input nav address while driving too.... Check the electronics section.

def not going to pay for this option. i don't even watch dvds in the car when parked. initially wanted to tweak the command system so other passengers can watch movies when we go on long trips.

I just asked the seller if the navigation can be used while driving, and this is what he said -
Hi,
Yes, you can use navigation while driving
Thanks

Anyone care to give it a try and let us know how it works?

Also my ML500 2002 Nav has an annoying legal warning every time I start, I didn't get that on this vehicle. I believe it was standard dealer stock.

I was concerned about this capability, so on a recent test drive of the 2010 E350 I tried to change the navigation destination while someone else was driving. Simply pressing down on the console control knob gave me the Nav menu from which I could select a new destination. I am unclear what exactly it is you can't do while moving.

most of the W212 E class comands are set to lock out the navi data entry when you are moving over 5km/h... If they are then the VIM212 will override this and allow entry data entry as well as video...

You can choose previously entered/saved addresses. You cannot enter a new address using the knob while the car is in motion. (ie: you cannot use the knob to choose each number of the street address, then street name, city name, etc etc).
