upgrade

Hi. Since one of the four door speakers in my European manual transmission 2003 CLK240 (W209) has a ruptured cone, I am considering upgrading all four speakers to something a little better. I don’t listen to that much music in the car so it does not have to be a huge upgrade. Anyway, since I am...

Hi All How difficult is it to replace the door speakers on a w219 CLS Grand Edition? I've removed the door panel previously which is easy enough but I didn't check what wiring went to the existing OEM speakers. I know which speakers I want to get (Hertz Mille Pro 165.3), but do I need to chop...

My W212 has Audio 50 (from what I understand). The speakers are average to say the least and the SatNav is horrible. Is there a retrofit head unit which incorporates a SatNavas an option to upgrade the Navigation? If not, or too pricey I can see a TomTom being stuck in front of the screen!
