S and CL Class (W221/W216)

This genuine Mercedes part wil allow your iPod to charge on cars with older iPods or a Media Interface / UMI that does not charge the newer iPods.

The mCar device connects to your car's fibre optic audio network and provides a fully integrated Bluetooth Phone system (with address book access for most phones) and a digital iPod connection emulating the CD changer for your Mercedes with Audio-20 or COMAND (before Model Year 2009 facelift).

If your car was specified with the Media Interface (which allows iPod, aux-in and USB connection on the Model Year 2009 audio units which have built in phone systems), you will have a MI connector in the glovebox or centre glovebox, into which you plug the appropriate cable set, or a different extension lead to connect to an iPhone/iPhone3G phone cradle.

This is the standard cable set for the ML, GL, R, CL, S and CLC class vehicles allowing connection of an iPod (or iPhone for music functionality), or a USB stick, or a 3.5mm aux jack for other non iPod music players.

Media Interface Plus.

This device is for cars with the Media Interface. It adds support for Bluetooth Audio Streaming, iPod Video playback, Pandorra radio for iPhone users and charging via USB.

This is the English speaking version.

The Mercedes iPod kits for the earlier A/B/C/CLK/GL/ML/R/CL/S/E/CLS/SLK (DVD based, or Audio-20 CD, i.e pre Model Year 2009) do not charge the latest iPod/iPhones since they use 5 Volts to charge instead of accepting 5 volts or 12 volts. This adapter lead replaces the existing lead from iPod interface to iPod/iPhone in order to charge all iPods & iPhones with the dock connector.

Please note that the "Model Year 2009" and W204/W212/W207 (C/E/E-Coupe/E-convertible) come with the new charging lead. The other iPod kits do not.

This is the standard iPod kit for W221/W216 (S and CL class) pre the Mid 2009 facelift. Mercedes have discontinued the Audio only version of this. Only the iPod video version is now available: See: http://www.comandonline.co.uk/S-CL-W221-W215-NTG3-iPod-Video.html

This is the Mercedes iPod Video kit for the new Mercedes S and CL Class (W221/W216) before the Mid 2009 facelift.

It charges the iPod and supports video playback from iPod/iPhones.

This is an active cradle for the Dension GW500 (D2B & MOST). It allows you to mount an iPod or iPhone on your dashboard to access the controls whislt being connected to the Gateway 500.

This is the Mercedes cradle that can be stuck into the glovebox to hold an iPhone, iPod Touch, nano with video or new Classic secure whilst driving. It is suitable for any of the IPOD kits.

You don't need this but we recommend you do use it as it stops rattles and protects your iPhone/iPod.

This genuine Mercedes part is used to boost the volume of the iPod kit if you find it is too low compared to other sources. It is required on the new W204 C class if you do not have the Harmon Kardon sound system and useful on the other cars, especially with older iPod kits which were noticably quieter than CD / Radio sources.

MB RRP is £25 inc VAT

This is the cable to connect the iPhone phone cradle to the Mercedes iPod kit.

This version is for E (W211), CLS (W219), SLK (R171) and NTG2.5 (MY2009) cars (A/B/CLC/W211-E/CLS/ML/GL/R).

It is not suitable for pre MY2009 A/B/CLC/W211-E/CLS/ML/GL/R or the W204-C, W207-E Coupe & W212 E class ipod kits.

It replaces the exising iPod connection lead, thus it is no longer possible to connect an iPod, you must use the iPhone.
