New: Remote Control Kit for Comand

We just completed a new product: Its a remote control interface that allows you to completely control the comand system on any W221 or W216 S and CL class from 2007 up. It allows the entire comand to be controlled from the back seat.


Video of the remote kit in action:

I find this very cool. This existed on the W220 model, I'm surprised that the current (or actually early W221) didn't even have the IR remote support. So it is coming back with the face lift?

I would buy one immediately if the price was reasonable (and postage to Europe). Not that I would need it that much but a feature like this makes the car an S-class, you would not need it on smaller ones.

yes, for 2010 they are available on the S when it comes with the rear seat entertaiment system and/or the upcoming splitview. we are not sure so far if the regular spec S will have them although they could certainly be added.

Ill try to get a price for mbworld members: so far the only holdup is that the mb remote control is so new that they dont have it in the system yet. once we get the price on that then i will have a full price for the kit

Same here. I had one in my W220. I would buy one if the price is reasonable for the novelty of it!
