I have a 2003 E500, the head unit is a single CD as well as a cassette player, just want to verify this is "non-MOST" correct?

Interested in getting this unit as I would like NAV and an AUX input and/or Bluetooth integration to play music from my phone.

Just to verify, the con for getting the non-most unit is:
-existing CD changer will no longer function

Thanks for the help, much appreciated

Incorrect.... Your car has MOST. 2003 and up on the E Class is MOST

any luck with this Hualingan or Dynavin ??

Emailed several times to Dynavin but no answer.
Hualingan has offered me HL-8797GB for USD 550+shipping cost USD 10 for China area.
But I ask for confirmation regarding MOST, but no response until now.

Confuse ??

HI Gentlemen,
Any luck on the units? I need one for S430 , 2002. Any response from the manufacturers?
Thanks,

I very seriously doubt that we or Dynavin or Hualingan will make one for the S Class (especially pre 2004). The problem is demographic. Most S Class users have ZERO desire to modify the cars. Also, the form factor of the D2B S Class, CL, and SL was extremely non-standard. Bottom line, I want to modify my own 03 SL, and you want to modify your 02 S, but we are a serious minority. Mercedes owners en-masse want them to remain as stock looking as possible. It is the whole reason all of our other products exist. A Honda owner usually has no qualms about sticking a display, buttons or similar somewhere in the car. But a Mercedes owner, that is sacrilege.
As a matter of fact, the only GOOD aftermarket frame manufacturer recently stopped making a frame for an aftermarket stereo for your car. The market was just not there. You can still get them for now though, because they just recently stopped production. mY advise would be to get the aftermarket kit and swap out to your favorite Pioneer, Alpine, Kenwood, etc - now before you can't get the good frames anymore.

Who sells em? Does it fit the 2002 MB S600?

Chris The Swede

Hualingan. They also include the wood panels.

Any further info on this?

REALLY??? Interesting news... I would love to test one when available. I would find it very surprising if they fit the pre 2003 AND work well.
We have only tested the Dynavin, but not the Haulingan. IF they work well, that would fill a nice hole in the lineup.

very nice piece but will it ever be available?? lol

My wife has 2004 c320 with the cd changer in the glove box and cassette in the dash. I'm looking to put in something with bluetooth for the hands free phone(and other things). I've been following this thread from the beginning and was waiting for the latest version to be released. Now that it seems to be out will this work on her car?

Thanks,
Ric

I would love it if they would do an Android OS version like the ones they offer for the BMW's.

Chris The Swede

Yes.

Pushing_Tin

Did anybody ever get one?

Chris The Swede

I have them in stock. Sold many of them. No probs.

KLR CLS

Do you know if they are release an Android powered version for our platform?

Chris The Swede

Never will I guess.

How does the NAVI work? Is it some sort of removable media? What would an electronics shop charge to install one of these? Anybody here have one? I'd like to hear some thoughts on living with it and its limitations.

Looks interesting.

Chris The Swede

Yes you put in a sd card with for example route 66 or tom tom maps.
