Bro, you can check with bro Camber. The FL has a fixed screen, slightly different IMO.

IMHO yours could be latest COMAND NTG 4.5.

If it's similar to NTG 4, it has only a single video input for Reverse Cam or Satellite TV which IMHO is not possible.

It should come with original MB Navigation, with single DVD or 6 Disc DVD Changer.

Currently DigTV in S'pore has only 3 channels i.e CNA, TV 5 & TV8.

for that U might to consider adding an after mkt MMI which typically will give U also reverse cam, 3 AV inputs & a RGB input for say Garmin GPS.

iMHO If U can retrofit COMAND, U should get all the functions U are looking for except Dig TV.

Looks like our residential COMAND Retrofit guys might have to do some homework on the new NTG 4.5

U can contact Camber53 aka Gregeory

at 96680053 or email [email protected]

He should be able to give U more information.

Like what a lot of bros say..mod don't be scared, scared then don't mod.

Welcome to the comand community. I love my comand too. It is very useful and makes the car more connected to the various technologies we use daily.

Camber did mine > 2 months ago and it still work like a charm.

[Guest arsenal]

Please check your Comand whether it is very hao lian only speak/listen to england though it can display Chinese characters. Me have tried to individualise this yaya-papaya unit via voice command from "music register" to "thia kwa" but unsuccessful leh.....nnb the Comand!

Almost all the standard W204 & probably C350 & C63 Command as Standard, rest are fitted with the STD audio 20,

It's a mod for those who have done it give them much pleasure & money well spent. They also probably understand why it's a >$12,000 from CnC.

If we are talking abt 1 year back, no one here including CnC or all the well known workshops can do this retrofit.

Now we have brought to U 2 site sensors who are able to do this retrofit.

Camber53 aka Gregeory who is located in Sg & ricric_lo aka Ricky Lo from HK but makes frequent trips here.

Not only this retrofit will give SAT NAV but also DVD & Voice Commands for Radio, phone, navigation & even your DVD + 6gb hard disk space for music & a PCMCIA adaptor for cf or SD card for up to 32gb of music. Power man!:becky:

Unker, out of curiosity...if I were to save a movie in my CF card, can it be played back in my Command set? Playing a DVD is only possible when car is stationary leh.

Can lah!

He installed in my W212

To activate or activate it, U drive the car with the DVD turn on.

The "DVD nag screen" comes up, U pressed & hold the return button on your steering till the "nag screen disappear". Once disaapear U can watch DVD on the move.

U go check with hiom about VIM aka Video In Motion

psst! go watch Transformer lah!!! good 3D!!!

[Guest jtang]

Ok...watch transformer 1st, then settle the VIM later.
