Hi, first post so please be gentle!

As you can probably tell I own a 2003 W203 220 CDi saloon and would like to find out how much it would cost to retro fit OE equipment.

The vehicle is currently fitted with an Audio 10 (I think) unit without a multi changer and there is no phone and/or cradle fitted.

If you need any more info please ask.

Thanks

Kevin
 
I too would be interested in find out costs/complexity of getting the satnav system. I have a W203 C230K Coupe 2003, with Audio 10 and a 6 disc multichanger.
Sorry to piggy back on your thread.
I have seen command systems on ebay for about £400 but no idea which one would be easiest fit or what extras are required.
 
IMO your better off with an aftermarket double din unit than the old Comand unit that would have been fitted in your cars as a factory option.

There is another option however. You could instead fit the lastest Comand NTG2.5 unit. It has a hard drive to store navigation maps, 7 digit postcode input, 4GB music register, SD card slot, dvd drive, full bluetooth connectivity so no phone pre-wire or cradle needed + more.

On a pre-facelift w203 you will need also to change to the facelift dash to fit it. Also you wont be able to use the steering controls with the unit on a pre-facelift w203 without also changing the cluster but this isnt a simple job. See second link below.
