Cd Changer
Phone System
BOSE amplifier
VCS Unit
Rear Comand BRacket
Upper switch row
a/c controls
wood panelling
sound harness

comand harness
d2b fiber loop
TV Tuner
TV Tuner Harness
Rear View Mirror


The above was replaced with the following items
MOST DVD Euro Comand Unit MBENZNL
Most TV Tuner
Most VCS Unit
Most UHI Phone System
Teleaid Module
Phone Harness
Sound Harness
Comand Harness
H/K Amplifier
Phone components such as compensator and teleaid switch, bracket
Upper Switch row
A/C Controls to new digital controls from 05
upper and lower wood panels
CD Changer
05 Rear view mirror w/4 mics

This was going on for several weeks and is finally done for the most part. There is a few more things I have done but need to finish up before I post that. I will take pictures later today and post them relating to the above mods.

A massive taks to have completed - well done!

 

[fuzzer]

wow , looks well smart

only thing is that pickie of the comand retrofit makes me want to do it again

Very nice, looking good Sunman

This definitely freshens up the interior look of the W203 / W209. So was that the mystery mod you mentioned, or is there more?

I don't think any of us could underestimate how much time it took & the cost! Think of a number, multipy by 50 and double it - Am I close

 

[sunman]

No, this is still not the mystery mod. More to follow soon.

hello sunman ,

can you post more info about the location of the HK amp and where the loom runs etc , also any pickies and part numbers youve got

damm , this mod bug is catching

 

[sunman]

in all honesty, the h/k system is not that great and may not be worth the trouble if you are looking for better sound. Also, the speakers can get costly. You will need to add a new speaker harness which extends to each door. Lots of the trim will have to come off.

 

[A-AvantGarde]

No, this is still not the mystery mod. More to follow soon.

Look forward to seeing the rest. I see that you've also got the new 05 cluster as part of the change from D2B to MOST. Very impressive, can't wait to see what else you've got planned!
