2014 EClass estate retrofit reversing camera

[Steveteare]

Just landed a great 2nd hand E250 estate however it didn't have a reversing camera and my wife really would like one. I've seen a few companies online and their displays differ as one has just blue guide lines and others show the yellow lines with static and turning lines. Can Mercedes fit this? If so then any ideas on cost? If not then which company does this group recommend that does a proper job. I'm in Oxfordshire.

Did you make a decision? I'm going in the same position and will be making some enquiries in March as I want a reversing camera. Once you've used one, I can't imagine not having one

The guys at COMAND did mine last month. Very happy with their work & on my W219 was cheaper than above... Definitely speak to them [emoji106]

Be very careful as there are people out there who say they fit genuine parts and dont. Some say yes we will update the datacard and dont. If you dont update the datacard then in all likely hood when the car next goes in for a firmware update the camera will get turned off.

Some firms even use these 'break in' looms that intercept the video signal and claim they are genuine parts. They arnt!

There is only one genuine Mercedes kit/parts list for these cars and to do the job properly requires genuine parts and Xentry to code the car. If this isnt done then the proper guidelines wont appear. As a model year 2014 car is still under warranty, I wouldnt do anything at all that might compromise that warranty.

Then it isnt a genuine part!

How do you tell what is genuine then? A lot of forms claim to use oem parts but what are the signs to prove this?
