Mine won't play MP3s, but the one in my 05 E500 will. Dunno how much to swap out; I just use an iPod jacked into the Aux input.

1) The 04 SL55 has the old 2.0 COMAND system using the old D2B wiring.
3) The 04 SL55 does not play MP3 cds or any DVDs.
2) The 04 SL55 has an AUX jack in the glove box for things like an IPOD.
3) The 05 SL55 will play MP3s recorded on CDs and DVD's.
4) The 05 SL55 or newer headunits will not work on 04's because they use the MOST wiring and is not internchangable with the D2B wiring.
That's what I got so far on this.
Please feel free to add to or make corrections.
Thanks to everyone who responded!

And second, and this is incredibly picky, but the MOST system uses fiber optics, not "wiring" to connect the components.
