Not sure US spec COMAND has the DVD hardware:

You can get the codes for free at

Also have a look at this for US/UK COMAND comparison

Sounds scary to me.

Sounds scary to me.
I can see it now, "the electronics warrantee on your 60k car is void, have a nice day". It would be cool though.

I wonder if it works for the R because all of the info I see has a head unit with a video button were ours states sat?

It sounds fun, I would like to play DVD's, I just would like some daring person to buy and try before I buy.

Only works for European cars which have a dvd player built into the command module. US cars only have CD players.

LOL. BTW, I read that there is a place in Germany you send your "old" unit to for an exchange for one which has a dvd/cd player in it.

2004 S430
looking for code as well for US spec

has anyone figured out how to get the dvd in motion for their s-class widescreen? i have a 2004 s430.

ps does anyone's dvd work while parked? even with the parking brake on it tells me screen is dimmed to prevent driver distraction or something. i was told the previous owner coded it to play dvds...but i had to go reset all systems when i bought the car...grrrrrr. All I get is audio on dvd's played in the dash unit.
