Have a satnav in the car NTG5E

How do I get speed cameras ??
 
Have a look at: www.pocketgpsworld.com Subscription is £19.99 for 12 months. You download the UK and Europe speed camera database onto a SD card put the card into the car and the data show as personal points of interest. Gives visible and audible alerts. Covers fixed and mobile sites. Weekly updates can be added to the SD card as forum members report new cameras.
Setting up is not as complex as the written instructions would suggest. If you go with them tweak the audio warnings to off or it will drive you mad additional with so many cameras set visibility to as approaching or your map will be filled with nothing but camera symbols.
Others may suggest using mobile phone apps but I have found this SD based system very reliable.

Does anyone know if this would work on a W205 C350e? Anyone in the forum using these cards?
I bought the updated Navigation package (£153 for 3 years) from MB just before Christmas and I am quite disappointed that it does not show speed camera locations. I had assumed this would be a given and now I kind of regret the purchase.
 
No Mercedes-Bena navigation system displays speed cameras (apart for the Becker Map Pilot 2011-2015).

You can either use the personal POI method as per post #2 (available also from SCDB.info - The Worldwide Speed Camera Database), or fit Apple CarPlay /Android Auto adapter from www.comandonline.co.uk and use Waze.

Also, what infotainment system do you have - the basic Audio20 with the optional Garmin Map Pilot navigation on SD-Card, or the higher-end COMAND Online NTG5*2/5.5 with built-in navigation on internal HDD?

Thanks for the reply. Very bad from MB.
I think I have the former, if I interpret the VIN correctly.

Do you mean "very bad from MB to deviate from their safety first image when they provide an option to show speed camera POI on their COMAND"? Well done by Garmin when not supporting speed cameras? ;)
 
I've got a file somewhere for poi camera locations in the UK . Can send it to you if any good . ?
