Change from command to MBUX

So yeah, I needed an SUV now and didn’t want to wait until the 2020’s came off lease next year.

I got a great deal on a very loaded GLC 350

but yeah I am missing the new MBUX

anyone know if it possible to swap out the dash and monitors and get a MBUX swapped in?

I know I know… just dreaming out-loud

I am actually waiting for EQC to come here.

Just last night, I was watching a video of someone in Russia that switched over the steering wheel, gauges, and screen over from the analog to the MBUX. They didn't really explain it, just showed it.

it looks like the next video shows it.

he changed the steering wheel also. It that point, spending that kind of money, it would be better to trade the car in for a 2020 model.

So the GLC in the video is a facelift model that came with the MBUX center console. You can tell since it has that new start button (I rather have the original silver push button). On these models, it's just an easy cluster swap. On the ones with the older units, it's not possible.
