Smile Video monitor for S-550

Anyone on this board has video monitors installed on head rests on front seats in S-550 ? I would appreciate if you can advise what type of monitor installed, which vendor installed, how much it costs, and where a DVD Player needs to be installed etc.. BY the way I am in southern California.

Thanks in advance.

It's better for you to talk with your MB dealer and order him the original MB RES. It will cost you more han usual, bu it worth's it.

So can you or anyone verify that this is possible in the US?

Is this on new orders from the factory only? Or can the Rear Entertainment System be retrofitted to existing MY07 and MY08 cars?

If you really want it I think is possible, even it's not avaible.

But you have to pay a black note.
