Well sweetheart I've been on the forum since 2008. You joined three weeks ago and immediately started shilling for a company with a documented history of fraud. I'm pretty sure folks here can figure out who's lying.

So you stated earlier that you would tell us the name of the company that you purchased the CP unit from. Who is it?

Oh wait....MB didn't come out with BT music streaming in the highest model until 2014. Never mind.
Personally, I don't care about iOS, I don't have an iPhone and my music isn't locked into a single vendors system. I just need a way to get the music library(MP3 and WMA) I have on my Windows Phone in my car and the PCMCIA slot works just fine for that. I have a 32gb card with everything I might want to listen to in addition to a lifetime Sirius full subscription, the sound sucks but it sounds okay for talk radio.

I think sometimes people get into a upgrade frenzy even though the upgrade is not going to add anything substantial to their experience. YMMV.

I think I may have found a carplay solution for my car. I emailed the company to see if it can be used in our w221.

CarPlay Box basically connects to the back of the radio, then iPhone lightning cable and microphone gets plugged in.

set the radio to AUX, btw carplay box activated AUX audio input,

press tel/nav button 2 times and you get carplay on the screen, controlled via comand idrive

P.S. carplay is not inside the radio its a piece of hardware

Yeah....and you've nailed the latter with apparently very little understanding of the former. I guess the line is a lot wider than you thought.

Again....who sold you this unit?

You might want to take some ESL classes. I've clearly stated it 3 times. And now for the fourth time, I want you to tell everybody where you supposedly purchased this CP unit from. You said you would tell everyone after confirming that it works.

Unfortunately, as far as your little enterprise is concerned, most people on this forum are the former.

As is standard MO for Vitali, he created this fake account (at the same time two weeks ago he created fake account Jakeu). The role of this second account is self explanatory.

Damn dude, mix it up a little and make it a challenge. This is basically a cut and paste from the last time you got busted.

Admin is aware and account has been put on notice for unauthorized selling.

Almanbenz, I know that in the seventeen minutes since you joined the forum we haven't always seen eye-to-eye, but I think that's because I actually have eyes while you're a fake user account created to support Vitaliy's other fake user account with no physical properties whatsoever.
