Upgrading MBUX screen in 2021 GLC300

Hi all,
Newbie here looking for some guidance. Have a 2021 GLC 300; bought from demo stock - very basic build and looking to see if there is any way I can upgrade the MBUX screen or the software to get nav, a better Apple CarPlay display, etc.

Yes you can update the MBUX 1,0 (NTG 6) version, I didn't hear about better apple carplay display or any important improvements though but to update, you connect the vehicle to XENTRY.

If you mean updating from MBUX 1.0 to MBUX 2.0 so NTG 6 to NTG 7, you can't, if you were to retrofit it, it is also not easy. Plus I don't think you would want to get MBUX 2.0 if you really like customizations as that version got rid of a lot of them. MBUX 3.0 NTG 8 also further got rid of the customizations.
