Command in a 98??

I have been searching the W210 archives and i cant seem to get any decent info as to how to fit a command into a 98 210, and what parts are needed to make it work.

A step by step guide would be ideal, but any info is welcome as I'm seriously thinking on going all the way with my E280.

RE: Command in a 98??

Please note that it is a Late 98, currently using an Audio 30 w/ CD changer.

After fitting the command, would it be possible to hook up a phone in the car as well, which would work with the command? (I know I would obviously have to fit a mic near the rear view mirror)

RE: Command in a 98??

Comand retrofit in a 1998 W210 is possible. You can purchase complete self installation kits from steve@mbenznl.com.

Since your car is a Euro spec, it requires more parts and more time to get a phone kit installed compared to the US spec cars - which come prewired. The microphone is one thing you need to add... I don't know exactly what else is needed for the phone install, but maybe someone else can help you with that.

BTW, your CD changer will probably not work with the comand unit!

Phone Kit (may as well be the UHI version)
------------------------------------------
Fibre optic cable from new CD changer
Rear trunk brackets
Controller (PSE)
Compensator
Antenna (with GPS)
Body cabling
Armrest cabling
Phone shelf in armrest

Would probably also benefit from pushbutton steering wheel upgrade and new instrument cluster.
