Navigation Retrofit

Does anyone know if it's possible to retrofit Navigation to a V221 S500L? Costs? Like all other S class vehicles it already has COMAND, so I would imagine this would be more of a software upgrade?

This vehicle was manufactured in March 2006 and is located in Hong Kong, if that makes a difference.

No, it cannot be a SW upgrade only. Of course you would need the GPS antenna but the navi processor parts would be missing from the head unit too. But you can buy the whole Comand APS unit from eBay at a reasonable cost.
