    Hey mate, sorry to bother you, but u seem to be the guru with the apple car play stuff + touchscreen
    Ive just bought a late september 2017 C63S coupe with command (preface lift c205)
    Ive seen you done a retrofit with oem parts that works well, from what ive read that can only be done for audio 20 vehicle?
    Do you offer anything for my car with command?
    Or if not can you recommend anything good quality? I seen you have played with quite a few of different aftermarket options (if oem not available) and id like something that works as good as oem (or close to it, if you know what i mean, u get what u pay for!)
    thanks a heap man.
    Also i am from Australia, which does complicate things i know

    Hey Star4life, I saw your post on mhh about you coding out Vmax on what I assume is pre-facelift C43s and you've replicated this a few times but encountered issues with Vediamo or your CBF to the point that you had to do manual HEX entry. I saw your C43 is no longer in your stable but you wouldn't happen to have the Implicit Coding value for the Vmax cell that doesn't affect start-stop and the ilk?

    Hey, I saw your post in another thread. I have a few questions about coding. I have a w213 that needs a few things. Could you message me? Thanks

    Hello Star4life, I recently purchased a 2016 CLA 250. I was searching on how to update the entertainment system for Apple car play and came across your profile. I had reached out to my local MB dealer and to my salesman who reached out to a buddy of his who worked for a Dallas MB dealer and they said it wasn't possible. The car has a production date of 2016-02-01, F117 Series production, 3U2 head unit, 522 Audio 20 Radio Navigation Capable NTG5. Also, the ports in the center console has the iphone/ipad logo next to USB 2. From what I have read I have everything that is necessary for the upgrade. I saw in some of your conversations you suggested reaching out to martintuning.com but I get redirected to www.infiniteautowerks.com and don't see any mention of this upgrade. I truly appreciate any help you could give me.

    Hi Star4life, I have seen your posts about OEM carplay for GLC, I have a 2017 GLC43 and am looking at buying/installing the parts listed in your previous post. I note you mentioned you sell complete kits and do the coding remotely as well? Is this something you are still doing?

    Feel free to contact me at g.skoumbri@live.com

    Thanks!

    Hi, Im an owner of a 2015 C63 s205 and I would like to get the digital gauges on command system. From what I have read in the forum, it can be retrofitted. Is that so? Im in Spain by the way, Thanks!

    Hi there,
    I have a 2017 C180 (Middle East) and I'd like to get the OEM Carplay... Will it work with my car? I can manage the installation but I'm not sure if my dealer can do it for me (if It needs any programming/coding).

    Can you do a remote programming like the BMW?

    Here is my car info:

    Also, you can email me at ezname@gmail.com

    Thanks!

    I just bought a 2019 C43 from a Ford dealer (of all places), and found out after the fact that it is a Canadian car. As such, there are some things that are displayed in Celsius (like the climate control), and there is no way to fix that without recoding the car (based on other posts I have seen here). I know you had said you could do it, what part of Michigan are you in? I am in West Bloomfield (north of Detroit). Please let me know, thanks!
