Does anyone know if a 2009+ ML/GL w164 radio will work on 2008 ML?

Yes, according to your vin#, your radio will fit all of the G Class.

The first three lines are for G Class and the bottom 3 are for ML.

Thank you so much.


Also, would you be able to get me the part number to swap out the old apple cable with a lightning cable?
