I'm not 100% sure of the iPod adapter to be honest, but the phone is normally mounted in the centre armrest if it is the same as the CLK (there will be a cradle with a curly cord, suitable for Nokia 63xx series).

For maps, it will be the DX map CD and you can get the latest version from Comand Online for £125 - linky

If you do have the phone in the centre arm rest, you can convert it to Bluetooth using the ViseeO adapter, which has a Parrot chip inside so syncs address book over and works great. Linky I fitted one of these to my CLK and it works fantastically.

The phone function will only work if you have the optional kit fitted from the factory. There should be a connector in the top of the centre armrest.

thanks chaps, yes i do have the nokia cradle in the arm rest, would i be able to play my music from my iphone if i had the bluetooth adaptor as well as use the phone?

Not 100% sure on that one to be honest, I wouldn't expect it too though.

You could ask comand online to confirm.

For iPhone to work as car phone all you need is mbu 1000 avail on eBay readily for cheaper than 150 , for your music to work through comand you need something else available from comand online , I use the iPod aux in the glove box
