I’m literally obsessed with your car! Keep up the videos 😁
You could get a optical loop and remove the cd changer.
Naw dont work just cuts signal
@@Jemstk as I said you need a optical loop in place of the cd otherwise you lose signal.
@@kimberlyjacobsen4148 i used loop and once cd changer removed dont work on mine
@@Jemstk hmm okay but the optical cable could be of a bad quality.. but im sorry yours did not work
Yea. It's like a 10 dollar part at the dealer. My problem seems to be the head unit not communicating. Could be the other components, I just checked the radio and cd player fiber optics. I think there's a tele aid and telephone maybe subwoofers?
Love Panzer bro! 🥰 I have an E55 a RaceIQ tune with a VRP 77mm clutched pulley and about to do long tube headers, a looped rail and bigger injectors with a new tune from Tony. I have been wanting to do a head unit upgrade so I can clean up my tech cluster and now I know what unit I want! I have a phone charger, camera, gps and radar detector and I wound the gps and camera cables through the Uniden coil cable to the 12volt to clean up the wiring. Its functional but its busy in window with multiple suction cups and wires. I also like the integrated Torque app and already run it on my phone so that would be one less thing taking up space on my dash in my line of sight. You also helped answer my questions about the CD changer and some of the extra wiring and I will refer back to this video when I do this job on mine. Thanks for the great content!
This video helped me so much finding out how to wire my w211. I was lucky, because i didn't had the 6 CD charger.
Keep posting!!
Great video! I'm wanting to keep my Harmon Kardon 7.1 system on my newly acquired E550! Though you have the Best E55! Nice Stirring Wheel! And Racing Ferrari Yellow paint! 👍👍👍👍👍🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎
GREAT VIDEO!!! Very helpful! Thank you for sharing this.
Is it rude to ask what the unit ran you?
With all expansion, harness , Adaptors include??
Very soon I’ll have my dream car!! Cls63/55 & a friend is offering this full set up for $400
He also has a bunch of adapter to keep harmoncardon
Of course not my friend. The unit it self cost me 249.99 before taxes
I'm about to purchase a 2004 mercedes s211 E500 station wagon. Would this set-up work with it seeing as how it's a year older?
Quick question 🤔 could the radio be rebooting because I used cig lighter for constant and accessory. Why can't I use the og constant and ground? Are you sure it will drain battery I did away with fiber got 2 amps now new door speakers and all canbus works but I do have to solve this rebooting thing. Xtron thinks it's canbus I don't because canbus seems to be working idk what do you think
A fiber optic bypass loop is commonly used. Can that work for the 6 disc cd changer ?
Great video man. I have e320 . I have bought xtron radio that looks like original. I hope that this decoder works. Very nice setup u got
Me too 2004 e320 got rid of fiber bs and went all aftermarket all good but xtron keeps rebooting 🤷♂️
Well I followed your lead on my w211 xtron everthing and jlaudio amps and door speakers. Xtron unit keeps rebooting when driving what you think it is. Canbus is working steering controls and door ajar on screen. Need your help last step what do you thing big dog
I returned the optic decoder i used that and your videos for first install thank you too. So now i want to do away with fiber optic i already replaced all door speakers with jl and i have kicker 12 L7 and kicker amp powerin sub. So got the newest xtrons they had just hooked that up got power but no sound. I have a new 2nd amp to power door speakers kicker so what is easy way to do it. I located factory harnen amp and what is next step
Man, this whole MOST box has been a HUGE headache for me.
I have 2 ML's and both do the same thing, even with 2 different MOST boxes!
All wired up correctly but it is almost as though the MOST box doesn't send a signal to the HK amp fast enough and thus the amp just goes to sleep, doesn't send anything and I get no audio as a result.
I have not been able to figure it out to get it to work.
Tested my deck & I get audio from it via the speaker terminals as well as the AUX OUT so it seems to be all due to those damn MOST boxes.
What are the chances of getting 2 bad ones, slim I suspect?
Dude. Thanks. Although i have the same system etc, probably wires in europe are in different colors.. Never the less, you saved me few hours of figuring this s*it out. :D
Livw how that radio fits i just ordered fiber adapter you have ling in video. I hace 2004 e320 rmatic with harmon kardon system. Is everthing still working?
So i am lost you need to keep factory cd changer mine is broke so do i need another, To use garage door open close stash spot.
Been trying to follow your stereo hook up i got same fiber box they didnt ha e that head unit anymore so got android 10 9 inch screen. Need a diagram how to connect everythubg
I am almost done system replaced everything xtron new head unit JL door speakers and two JL 12s also Two amps one for sub and 1 for door speakers so with new 4 channel amp I took out harmen amp and I am only going to be using the 4 door speakers so run speaker wires from harmen amp to kicker 4 channel. Can I use the og remote and power and ground? That would be easier then distribution blocks tfrom sub amp to 4 channel amp. So rca do I use 2 sets for it 1 set from amp to l and r front channel and 2nd rca from 4 channel amp to Rear l and right. So will that work?
Hey bro got a W211 but mines saying AUDIO OFF. Headunit is showing volume change but looks like the car itself isn’t detecting any volume input. Any help?
How had it been working, i'm thinking of buying this samekind of xtrons unit to my w211?
Its been working well i have a newer slightly updated unit in my slk55 for a little over a year. Love it
Nice to hear and is it really necessary to have this cd changer that you don't have able to delete it? If you do delete it will it be that radio wont work or what it does?
Thank you! Will be getting one for my 211 @e55rp
Thinking about getting this setup for my E55. Wanted to see how you like this setup now that a little time has passed?
Did you bypass the cd changer and put a tray in its place?
I have a 2004 Mercedes’ Benz clk 500 , Bose system fiber optic non GPS and uses cd changer in glove box - looks like it uses factory amps - I’m looking to install a after market stereo but can’t seems to find the correct harness or interface online or at a local stereo installer shop - are you able assist me with this problem with a part number or website link ….. thank you
Where in the US are you located? I have a W211 E350 and need someone professional who can install the system. I would love get it done by you. Let me know if we can touch base.
Hi. Are oem radio, cd, phone working? Any battery drain issues?
@Panzer's Garage so does your cigar lighter work? Or you didn't hook it back up?
Do you have factory satellite,if so does it work with this head unit?
Hi i am setting up this for 2003 mercedes-benz s500 i am little lost and cant find the bypass module, i think its called d2b module can please reply back thank you.
Got decoder box hooked ot up need to know what goes to cig lighter
Been waiting for this video 👌
Does your radio have built in navigation or do you hav to hook up your phone to it to use navigation?
Dude said “jimmy rigged”😂😂
Hi I need your help I have slk 350 I don't know where the location or can bus connector port in my car can you help me
So confused with head units of his unit has horrible reviews on Amazon and the decoder is not like on the forums does it actually all work or is a gamble
I'm sorry it's confusing. The decoder works well and is simple to use, I had purchased a new version recently and that one works flawless with updated software. I made a install video for my slk55 with better instructions similar to the e55 layout.
Keeps rebooting do you think because I used cig lighter for constant and acc can I just use cig lighter acc and og power to yellow you said it will drain 🤔
Got one on eBay audio not working got fiber optic box and still no audio
Good info
Which CANBUS option did you select when setting up CANBUS type? Also were you able to retain all your instrument cluster controls? I have an '09 e63 amg, the Nav is missing and music name are missing. For the music it's listed in small letters as "other" I can scroll up and down but no name. Any suggestions?
Some items won't be retained as the information for the nav is different since it needs the NAV CD to process the information. So, nav data on cluster won't be shown.
Music name won't show depending on your options. My slk shows AUX on my cluster.
I used a canbus decoder. Please check our my recent video on the slk55 which uses Nav2.5 HardonKarmen unit, and I replace the entire setup using a decoder to retain steering wheel functions.
What if i want to retain the steering wheel controls and be able to change the song or lower the volume on this headunit. Would I need to buy a seperate adapter/decoder box to do that or does that fiber optic box take care of all that?? Sorry if you mentioned it just trying to clarify.
You would need a module that can decode canvas. Depending on the radio you buy, it comes with it. Worse case, you purchase one separately and program
Can you send me the link in description for all that for the radio and all the things that you got I really like it you a beast appreciate you Want it for my 09 e63
What’s the link to the unit you chose
Also wanted to know what yoy did woth moddle compartment sos button etc..
I just left them as is until I removed them competely
@@PANZERSGARAGE okay next question can i yank cd changer and hoe do i just use the button
Nevermind got hole new hazard switch and he threw in 6 disc chanher 40 bucks yea yeaaa
@@PANZERSGARAGE so i got backups and next step new head unot and speakers. I am doing upgrades on engine and interior right now. Just did full tune up took me all day lol 12 plugs lol and sone old plug boots rusted out i fixed it all. Now i got front right clicking think might be torn cv boot so i ordered cv axel and upeer control arms and lower control arms tie rods shit if you shop around i got complete front 200 bucks new
@@PANZERSGARAGE my homie nice at wrapping cars that change color i might go grey and black carbon fiber full body kit
Good Job !
Does this process also work on the 05 e500
Yes it does if you have the factory Navi g1 with hardon Karman
Hi,
I have the same unit on my CLS55.
It keeps draining my battery even with my car is off. Especially with decoder installed, but I need it to bypass so my Harmon kardon would work.
Any tips?
Thanks!
Did you resolve this issue?
Wired it wrong. 12V and ACC are different. 12V is constant power and ACC is ignition
Yes you are right got me confused by running constant and acc off cig. Can't I just use og power and ground does it drain the battery idk help
What Bluetooth you use in your aux port ?
I believe my c55 amg has the same headunit by the looks of it. Does this headunit allow Bluetooth music?
Did you change yours out? I’m getting same car / same question
Great Car and personality Panzer!!! Question off topic, for the power you are running, “What Tires are you running?”
For my current setup im using continental extreme sport contact. Good tire for the money and last longer than some other brands.
Will this unit work in a W219?
Sabría decirme cómo conectar los mandos al volante?
No hay manera gracias
Where did you get the pulleys?
I got tired 9f it yanked it put android 10 in it problen is dont sound the same
Question: Where did you splice at to get your power and ground for your radio to work? I saw that you made your first contact at the cigar lighter. Did you change it?
I kept that cig location for power and remote turn on. Closest and easy to access for fuse location
@@PANZERSGARAGE so does your cigar lighter work? Or you didn't hook it back up?
@@PANZERSGARAGE Also how did you bypass the cd changer. I bought a optic bypass wire but the power wire is the only thing I have left to hook up.
@@PANZERSGARAGE what did you do to delete the cd changer?
Followed your link to Amazon, I'm just wondering, are these huge Mazda android compatible with the Benz, they almost look like they curve the same and their huge and Affordable
if you get a fiber optic lop you don’t need the cd holder
Tell me more?
What is the system called
can u help me with my after market radio plzzzzzz
What do you need help with?
Cost?
I'm in South Africa, I have a 2004 e240 and I've tried hard to find this android. Finally saw something on ebay that I thought I could afford but they said they couldn't deliver to my country.
How much did you get that for?
Bro if u send me the $ I'll order for u I jus order one
Hey #Hape don’t send anyone you don’t know your cash mate. If you’ve someone in North America 🇺🇸 or Canada or Europe they can buy for you and ship to eMazansi. I’ve a w211 E320 also ordered mine from Amazon and it’s been 2yrs now she’s running pretty damn good broer.
Pay me I will ship to you
Why don’t you show it installed and actually working after all that boring wiring information?
When you sell it I will buy it
Obviously.
My sound doesn’t work for some reason
Mine doesn’t either you get it figured out?
Nah
Same here 🤦♂️ anyone figure it out yet? lol
It’s like this guy just made a video on it (which is the only reason I got the radio) and helps no one
Do you guys have factory Audio 50 or NTG1 radio?
What’s your Instagram or Twitter page? I need help with getting sound from my speakers!
Greetings from germany. The optic fiber decoderbox is a bullshit. It dont works whit all harman Kardon cars. Skyshadow and wondefoo makes better radios than XTRONS
Man I jus order one what brand is this
But you lose sound quality:(
no thanks i'll save my money too much bs going around in there.
Omg. Stop talking and actually SHOW how to install.
Haha, sorry mate, this is not a how-to video, but if you go to my video with the slk install, it's close to the point
But honestly, you helped me greatly! Thanks, Brian
Xtron having nothing bit pro less first unit rebooting when driving 2nd obddongle connects half the time. W211 with nothing but xtron problems
