My new V Class (V250) has the 360 camera option. This is probably the same tech as other models - I have the Comand that looks like an iPad stuck to the dash. Just done 1000 miles and noticed the drivers side wing mirror camera sometimes doesn't display an image on the screen. The fault is...

Epic!

Followed a very nice looking CLS class this morning on the school run - 63 plate. In the traffic I noticed an orange triangle appear in each of his door mirrors to lower outer corner when stopped/low speed, these disappeared as he picked up speed. I couldn't work out what the function was -...

The German cable guy came good and sent out the cable - I fitted this easily along with the new antenna amp. As explained by Sparkydude, this cable has one long lead up to the new antenna amp (which has two outputs, not one like the old unit) and a short lead to make the second connection...

Thanks for that, I have the exit "puddle" lamps already in the Viano so a simple extension to the dash each side will achieve it. If you want the footwell lamps to come on with the sidelights as Flying Start wanted, I would go for the little lamp in the ashtray as the most convenient place to...

I too am interested in the footwell light mod as I have seen this on a Vito on Zenmans Vito World FB page, and I could only think of getting the feed from the interior lamps. As I am about to run the antenna cable up to the overhead console for my new antenna amp soon, I was going to run up an...

I found this by digging about a few months back, I think I located it after following a link Sparkydude gave on another forum. It's too hard for me to follow mind you...there is so much information written in technical language. http://www.mercedesforum.nl/forum/download/file.php?id=103183

Thanks, that's great. I will get the cable in the second link, and give it a shot. My reception with the current antenna splitter works ok, but it does drop out especially in built up areas.

How do you select the standard? My wireless receiver will output either pal or NTSC, and NTSC does indeed appear in colour and pal b&w but the darned thing defaults to PAL each time it powers off! It's not a big deal I just have to run through the menu once a day, the unit shuts down when it's...

Ok the parts have arrived. As you can see the mic has a two core connection. The antenna amplifier has some interesting connections - a mustard fakra, a black fakra and that twin green wire going to what looks a bit like battery connection (but I bet it's not). So, I need to get some cables...

Mines a 2007 Viano, it goes 1-2-3-4-D. I have never counted the gear changes, but I will now. Welcome.

Sorted - it's a 3.5mm jack 4 pole that provides audio as well video output. Got a cable from Maplin, now to find the fakra from ebay.

I have just upgraded my Comand to the ntg 2.5 unit which Comandonline have coded for my reverse camera. I know this connects to the green fakra on the 2.5. I have a wireless reversing camera I installed a few months back which I bought from TrailerVision. At that time I wasn't sure I was going...

Ok had a very good day. I have fitted the 2.5 unit with no problems. Most awkward bit was routing up the mic cable, but not as difficult as I had been anticipating with the help of a wire pull through from ebay. I have gone for a temporary first fitting, as I am still waiting for the antenna...

If you are anywhere near Bradford you are welcome to try out my Viano seats, I find them comfy for my back especially with the heating. There is a little +\- button for the lumbar support too.

Odd how it gets in, there must be a hole somewhere as since garaging mine it's been fine on that score. I reckon it should be covered under the warranty as they are a sealed unit - what are the other issues out of interest?

Picked up a mint Viano sales brochure from ebay. I have every sales brochure for every car I have ever owned, intention is to display them in my penthouse garage when I win the lotto lol. Bearing in mind this was only seven years ago, some of the statements seem a little sexist for today's...

No afraid I haven't got the official E66. I just had the speakers upgraded, and had a sub woofer fitted under the drivers seat. Pics on my My Project Viano thread - can't work how to link it on my iPad app.. I wanted tweeters in the A-post as per E66 but the audio guys advised me to see how I...

Quick update on my Viano: Bits and bobs done to date : 1. Had calipers painted black front and rear, with new discs needed on the rear 2. B-Pillar decals fitted 3. New chrome indicator bulbs fitted front and rear (thanks BTB see ^) 4. Had front and rear speakers replaced inc tweeters 5. Had...

Great thanks for that. I will order up the amp and mic from MB parts as I have an order pending with MB parts online for a seat box cover with a speaker grille in it - they are just waiting for a price from Germany. I am also needing a couple of clips and a treenail for a loose screw on the...
