ML W163 jack/tools, books, cd changer, etc

[CraigRoyK]

Hi all,

Looking for bits missing from the new purchase, in order of importance/priority.

Jack and tools. Probably the only really critical piece of kit ( I know I could get this direct from MB, but trying to save some cash).

Vimeeo MBU1000

Set of books. The vehicle is a 2001 facelift ML500.

See someone decided to remove the factory fit cd changer (it's on the data card, but only the bracket is present). If someone has a suitable one, please shout.

TIA,
Craig

Is the fibre optic cable still present?

More so, have you tried ebay for the cd changer?

Yes it is.

I have, but not knowing what's cross-compatible with what, means that all my searches are pretty much limited to items which state they are W163 compatible. Which as the vehicle is now over 10 years old appears to be limited.

Any guidance on the above to help my search will be appreciated.

I'm slowly trying to build up my knowledge of this stuff, but only ever have had older Mercs and cars where the radios simply used ISO plugs puts me out of my depth here.

Found a listing for an ML cd changer which says it is the MC3110, so I'll go for that and see how I get in.

Still looking for books, tools, etc
