2005 SL55 Completely Built Motor
Looks great and probably functions and sounds a 100 times better than the cheap Android units.

If you don't mine me asking roughly what you pay for it all?

Spent less than 1500 dollars installed. Shop around, this is a 2017 unit.

Too bad this can't work for '03/'04 cars. Our only choices are the Chinese units or to pull out the Bose amp and replace with a standard 5-channel amp.

Steering wheel controls lost?

I'm assuming you can no longer use the audio controls on the steering wheel?

I believe Metra makes an adapter for the steering wheel buttons.
