Comand disc and front nose

I have just bought a 2004 SL500 and the Comand disc #9 is missing. It is the southeast that I need and this is the 2007 version. How do you get an updated set or just the one #9 from 2007?
Also, under the front nose, there is some plastic covers missing that just cover the bottom of the nose. What would be the best way to find these parts?
Thanks for the great info on this site.

I have an 04 and was also missing 09 disk. I ought it on eBay from a gal in FL that sold them. Go to ebay and do a search for mb SL 500 Nav disks. I think I paid close to $30.00 for it. I believe that one I got was an 2010 update which was the last one made.

That's incorrect.. a 2011 version was released.
Here are the part numbers:

BQ 646 0290 - 4/2011
BQ 646 0273 - 2010
BQ 646 0248 - 2009
BQ 646 0222 - 2007
BQ 646 0215 - 2005
BQ 646 0094 - 2001

Is this number for all of the Nav CD's or just the Southeast CD?

The whole set. MB doesn't sell them individually.

Isn't this a single DVD for the entire north america? Also would it work for COMAND units prior to MY2006?

If you answer yes to both questions than I would recommend it

Freak show, where do you order the set from? I tried the MB site and the Genuine Parts site and got no where.

The part numbers I listed were for updated map CDs for any CD-based navigation unit. 2005+ R230s use a DVD; these part numbers would not apply.

I was able to order the latest set in person from my local MB dealer up in Vancouver, BC.

I'm not sure why another dealer would or would not have access to the CDs..

Don't use the "B" in the part number search. Begin with "Q". You can also plug the number into http://www.partsvoice.com/partsearch the same way and get a list of dealers that have them. Mercedes no longer has a contract with Navteq for D-NAVI(CD based) systems. Most likely they were ordered directly for customers and took forever to come in(like mine did) and they may release them if they have been sitting for awhile.
