SL 350 R230 (3.7L with AMG Speedshift autobox)
Replaced Comand Screen today

Decided to replace my NTG2 Comand screen as the LCD has started to go at one edge. Pretty straight forward and took me less than an hour and cost £40 so to help others and save you money I did a quick vid:

End result was better than I thought, the screen is really bright and colours are stronger. I had thought of upgrading the stereo but as I had already modified it to play USB, AUX, DAB, Bluetooth Music Streaming and Phone, I decided to keep things standard looking and just replace the screen instead.

Hope this helps others!

Very informative, thanks. My screen is okay but it is very reassuring to know that a swap is totally feasible.
