Garage Door Opener
My wife has a red 2000 500SL R129 daily driver and the mirror buttons always worked to open the garage door also vintage 2006. I just replaced the garage door opener with a really nice digital 2024 model but I can't get the mirror buttons to recognize the slick new garage door opener. What am I doing wrong?

You need a compatibility bridge such as the one below. GDOs manufactured after 2011 use a newer, more modern and secure Homelink protocol, and the transmitters in older cars are not compatible.
