Command Radio System..
Regards all .. I recently bought a car MB S350 / 2006 as it was cheap to
My wife liked it. The only thing that was bad was the radio that did not work. After I bought it at home, I pulled the radio to see that it had and to my surprise it was not connected and the cabling was cut off. I want to install it to see what happens, but Law that are only 3 cables and the fiber optic coming out of the radio .. now and so many broken wires where they go .. what do I do with them ?? Can someone guide me to see where they are connected? thanks in advance..see atachment pls..

Looks to me that someone installed an aftermarket radio and then hacked it out before they sold it. The real bad feeling I have is that they changed the speaker wiring to use the new radio and that the old speaker wires are now hacked.
In good new, You might be able to install a newer radio in the car and you would have the speaker wires run at the dash.
The power for the head unit used a always on hot for the memory. A switched hot for the command system when the key is turned on and a ground.
The tags on the wires look like speaker location.. FR = Front Right etc.
