    Nice install. My 2016 E400 W212 with NTG5s1 has the same interior. However, I installed the Android 10.5 Touch Screen and man its soooo much better. Surprize the owner of that vehicle didn't opt for that instead.

      Joe A The replacement screens have come a very long way in recent years. We find ourselves doing them more and more often. I offer the solution to our customers however in this case our customer wanted to keep the car with original parts (screen etc) it was also an E400 and extremely clean 👌🏽

    Nice description of the installation. I have one of these on the way for my 2014 w204. I'm curious as to why the microphone is needed, why can't you tap into the existing microphone? Also, instead of have the USB cable from the can hanging out under your dash, do you think it's possible to use the existing USB outlet in the compartment, between the seats, where the media plug is located?

Or you just need to switch it on and don’t plug nothing and it will work? Thank you

    • @TheFittingBay
      @TheFittingBay  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      NewShockerGuy the genuine cameras work as normal. There’s no extra plugs for the factory cameras. These inputs are extra inputs on top of the system as it is. So in your case they get taped up and put away. The genuine camera system will continue to work as normal. If you’re in CarPlay and select R the camera system will come up. If you’re in CarPlay and try to activate the camera system with a button it will not work you’ll need to switch back to OEM screen. Hope that makes sense :)
