W212 COMAND Control Knob Install Question

Hi MBworld,

I was wondering if anyone knew how to disassemble and install the COMAND control knob on a W212 E350? I tried searching for iDrive install but nothing came up. I cant seem to find a DIY on this topic..

When I look at the part, it has only 2 screws and a harness plug. I was wondering if the center console piece just came off? Or do I have to remove a bunch of parts to access this piece? Any info would help! The dealer wanted $600+ to replace this piece.. but I am finding Used ones for about $60 online, and new ones for $175ish.

If I can do it myself, it would be worth it.. but if not... I guess the scroll function will have to not work.. lol

Please help! Thank you

idrive search will get you nothing on this forum. Search on comand knob.

Also, there is another thread with a alternative repair part:
