‘Tested’ means that operation has been verified in the listed year and model. You may order with confidence.



Unsure if you have a Bose amplified system? Check any vehicle records that you may have, look for the Bose logo on your speakers, or consult any Mercedes dealer (you will need your VIN).



Limited information is available on Mercedes audio systems. We strive to provide the best information possible regarding compatibility. Adapters may be available for loan to test compatibility where questionable. Email dick@bipesauto.com with compatibility questions or to arrange for an adapter on loan.
