It's good to see you have finally got it.
I would be very happy if you can share an instruction on how to swap screen and everything? Also where to buy that LCD screen.
Thank you.

Which was ordered brand new, but due to a faulty cable I nearly spend a complete month searching and guessing

Hi guys, as promised.
First of all my initial setup:
Garmin map pilot, small 8 inch LCD multimedia display
Analog speedometer.
NTG 5 head unit.
What i had to buy
NEW screen(because if you would buy an used screen, you would face the 'dashes' issue: your mileage wouldn't be displayed. There is a workaround, but its costly)*dealer price 2700 euro, I got mine for 1300 euro.
NTG 5.5 Head unit( High Command) Dealer*dealer price 3200 euro, I got mine for 800 euro.
Multimedia Module(Optional, but i wanted apple carplay, so this was a must have) 200 euro
wiring harnass for multimedia module 90 euro
Wire harnass for LCD.. I think it's called the LVDS cable 80 euro
Coding was around 200 euro, but still some things aren't good....
First step is to install the new head unit and wires, it is plug and play. The multimedia module does need a seperate 12V source.
The screen install is peanuts, 3 T20 screws and swap it out.
Coding should be done by someone who knows what they are doing.
It took me several weeks to get it working, but as I said earlier, I have never worked with benz before.
And I dont have C4/Das/Xentry/Vediamo, which I might buy in the near future.
I added a pic of the result.
For now it works, just two minor issues left
First; my backup camera is displayed incorrectly, it has the old resolution, and its super glitchy. parking sensors/parkpilot not working properly anymore
Second; Ambient lighting isnt working yet... But In the light settings menu of the car I cant set brightness level for the cockpit, so my guess is, that is not coded?

Pre installation; Old setup
Mounted new LCD - BEFORE CODING
AFTER CODING THE SCREEN
Hey all,
I am new to MB altogether, was always a loyal BMW driver, but my last car was so problematic that I decided to switch.
The local dealer where I got the Beamer had this W213 and i liked it, some paperwork and we swapped keys.
There was just one thing, IT DOESNT HAVE A LARGE FULL SCREEN LCD?(WHAT WAS MB THINKING?)
Oh well, retrofitting time.
So far?
- Full screen LCD
- NTG 5.5 High
- New multimedia Module with a phone symbol(so i guess its high line)
- Cable for the Multimedia module
- wire harness for the ambient lighting
- Did the coding
Results so far:
Screen left side (LCD) working properly, responding to steering wheel, speedo, rpm and everything is working
Right side(LCD). pitch black, i hear a sound for 1 sec and then nothing?
Does anyone have the slightest clue? because i'm out of idea's...

Part numbers for everything needed would be much appriciated!
There is lots of parts avaible in the junkyards and searchble by original parts number!
I think these are correct for Europe/Sweden left hand drive, but not at all sure about it so dont take my word for it! its very confusing
Small screen 2139009406 (with analog cluster)
Big screen 2139007520 or 2139004724 (with analog cluster) i think first number is 2016-2017 and second is 2018->
Widescreen 2135400271 or 2135405292i think first number is 2016-2018 and second is 2019->

Tänk på att du inte kan använda beegade displayer.
Have in mind you cant use used screens...

Men om du är CKM Chris så hade jag tänkt köpa av dig om/när jag får råd då du hade bättre pris på en ny än skroten på en begagnad!
Men det skulle vara trevligt att veta vad som behövs för en konvertering förutom displayen! så man kan hålla utkik på skroten efter lämpliga delar.
Jag har:
11U MBCONNECT - REMOTE ONLINE (HERMES)
351 E-CALL EMERGENCY CALL SYSTEM
355 PREINSTALLATION FOR NAVIGATION RETROFITTING
357 SD CARD NAVIGATION
360 HERMES - COMMUNICATION MODULE UMTS
522 AUDIO 20 RADIO NAVIGATION CAPABLE NTG5
Och hur funkar kodningen? Gör Mercedes den eller är det ett besök hos dig som gäller?

Jasså? Men det är chassinumret som inte går att manipulera å då blir det problem med kartorna tex. Så länge du har stor skärm idag behöver du bara nya skärmen plus kodning. Mercedes brukar inte va så sugna på att göra det men är nog lite olika på vem man frågar.
