Good mod JadeFox. Have considered the same mods myself. What year is your car?

Alfie is there any way of playing video from the itouch 2G to the comand screen?

Well done! Mirrors are so cool as well. If you are ever going up the savacentre let me know and you can show of your ipod thingy-I haven't done that mod yet!

Thats only possible with the latest and greatest hard drive based NTG 2.5 comand and the media interface but without TV tuner.

The other way would be to use the aux in on a tv tuner on the dvd based comand.

i pod intergration

Hi People,
This is my 1 st post and was hoping some of you can enlighten me to this i pod intergration thingy.
I spend 3 hours fitting it last night (cable routing to the boot blah blah) all seemed to go ok, plugged the ipod touch in, and way hay , it played .
What i dont get though is the steering controls, the only functions i can get is volume up or down, or scrolling through the entire music collection one by one.
I was lead to beleive that playlists, genres,albums ect where easily accessed aswell?
Has any one done this mod? have i messed up? lol
Any help mucho apprieciated
Mark

Hi mate... What you need to do is have the mobile phone option enabled on the car. This will enable the phone buttons on the steering wheel and let you access the playlists, artists, songs ETC.

It's pretty simple just need the car to think it has the phone kit installed and needs to be programmed on the Mercedes Star Diagnostics.

Speak to Comand Online (forum sponsor) as they done mine for me.
