If you want fully integrate "exactly like factory installed", then look at the iTronic BT at CarTronics.com - thousands and thousands installed.

I'm fancing with the idea of buying a nice German Fiscon kit I found at kufatec.de

FISCON Bluetooth Handsfree - "Basic" - Mercedes - B-Klasse W245

The problem is if the dealer would enable the phone function for me and/or where in Toronto somebody can do it as indicated in their manual:

Fiscon version 1

Yay! Got my NO PHONE cluster function activated by a polish guy (Jarek) who does chiptuning (including for B200 for $500) in Oakville, for $60 and 15 minutes of my life... next... pay off some credit cards so I can get the FISCON version 1.

Personally I prefer German products, shipped from Germany not Atlanta Georgia or anywhere else... and beside a higher price than the German technology (293,28 EUR for the unit, 59,00 EUR shipping by FedEx to Canada, Total: 352,28 EUR, approx $541.72 canadian) and easy plug and play installation, what does the iTronic have, compared with the Fiscon? A star spangled banner on the box? I don't buy that. I have the maple leaf here.

The unit is plug and play, cost $389 US. Maybe next time you can read up on it instead of shooting. Just trying to help you out. To each his own

I see $899 plus shipping. Plain Talk, it is... lesser options than the iTronic...

With our dollar rising so fast US imports are good value

I bought some parts from the local dealer and could find no Maple Leaf on the package

I think most electronic audio devices come from Asia regardless of the packaging.

Actually, it has been commented by other that the iTronic originates from England.

I ordered one last week; it's on the way : )

Will post pictures of install.
