Dude I keep thinking I’m going to do this for my 2011 W212 coupe. You helped me do a few things on my own but WOW I don’t know if I have the fortitude to tackle this. I’ll probably watch this video 100 times and bit off on this project next Winter maybe? Keep the great vids coming. Love what you do - cheers)
Pleased to hear that my videos coming to use. Is not really that hard, is kinda seems messy with all the cables but when you have it in front of you is really easy to understand and execute. Best advice I could give is not to stress when doing the install, prepare for a full day with all the steps and testing the device before assembly. Be careful when removing the screen if you choose to put the unit back there. Most installers seems to put the unit behind or under the glovebox but is probably same amount of work if not even more.
Thank you buddy. İ have NO ideas about cars and electronics. You helped me to save 150 Euros but especially to make my w212 sweeter as it already was. Sağol garaş.
Det du gjorde blev riktigt bra. Jag hade gärna velat göra lika på min E 250 men vågar inte ge mig på detta jobb. Kanske till våren, man vet aldrig. Kanske kan få lite mer tips/hjälp från dig. Beröm för det du gjort 👍👍
hello thank you for sharing , do you think that is safe to install it behind the screen ? Is the temparature very hot in that area ? is there any problem when the outside temperature is showing 42°C ?
Thanks 🙏 Yess you could find some for NTG 4 but not from this particular brand. mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w212/794234-diy-kremersino-wireless-carplay-ntg4-0-a.html
Var faktiskt över förväntan, och kvalitet var riktigt hög för att vara eftermarknad. Köpte från AliExpress av roadtop. Men det beror på vilken modell du har på systemet, roadtop fungerar inte för NTG 4.
You don’t have rout the AUX cable to the center council. Just use the cars original Bluetooth 👍🏻. Audio quality is great since I am still using the original Bluetooth and I could still play music and answer phone calls from car play 😁
Thank you for this very nice and detailed video. Is there a specific detail to identify the correct NTG model of my Audio 20 (SA Code 523) system in my C Class W204 (year 2012)? Also there is no reverse cam in my car. If I install a cam will it be possible to use it with the trajectorie markers and parking lines etc?
Nice video, after 5 times watching I finally have a guts to install it myself, only issue that I have is Wireless Apple Carplay is not working but Android Auto is working wirelessly and I also installed a reverse camera but the dynamic line (trajectory) is not showing but camera operates normally. Wondering if it is due to my model is Audio 20 with NTG 4.5 which originally doesn’t have video input for reverse camera? Also wondering what brand of that box you have? Mine is Limcet box, maybe the wireless apple carplay issue is this brand faulty
Great video well done! Does this also effectively upgrade the Bluetooth version? With my original 2010 unit I can barely stream a song due to slow Bluetooth it seems. I need to understand CarPlay better I guess. Thanks again!
Yess I believe so because I don’t need to have my phone connected to the normal Bluetooth so should definitely upgrade your system. Not really sure about the technical for CarPlay but have my phone only connected to it and working really good.
@@MB212 Great, thanks for the reply! I really like how it uses the same screen size. I’m going to check with my stereo shop what they would charge for this install. I’m in the LA/OC area. 👌🏼
@@MB212hello sir, i have an W212 from 2009 and i ordered the NTG4.0. I am just wondering if the volume of the sound will be low because of the AUX. I‘ve Tried an AUX Adapter for the music and i realized that the volume was waaaay lower than the adapter with the frequences via radio. And Since the Apple car Play will be installed with the output of AUX, i am wondering if it will be with a lower volume too or if its not the case. I would appreciate an answer.
I'm looking at the reviews. Why are so many people saying that it dies after a few months? Is it because the dial switches get knocked while being in the car? I need some reassurance for this buy
@@MB212 Strange! But how do you connect the CarPlay box with the Audio 20 in order to amplify the audio-signal coming from the box??? you don't have to switch to the AUX-In on your audio 20? I can't understand that :-(
Don’t know the technical how everything works. But when I have Bluetooth to normal system I could use whatever menu I like but when disconnecting Bluetooth to normal system is only working from AUX menu.
I have this kit. I have tried to fit a couple of times but I cannot get the radio unit to go back far enough I assume it is the double connecter is jammed behind the unit, any advice olease
I have a very similar unit added to my C207 ntg, and found the screen blanks intermittently. I have asked the installer for advice, but his reply is take a pic of the screen blanking out, which is difficult to do whilst driving? Is it a fault with the unit or a wiring issue?
does this technically also replace the head unit? i have subs in my mercedes’ but they don’t hit well because the stock headunit, so if i where to do this, would it solve that problem?
Parking sensor and camera works as normal. You could chose in the setting if you like it to switch to original camera display when you put in the reverse or you could have it on aftermarket camera for CarPlay decoder. For my audio 20 system is not possible to add rear camera without this decoder, so is great 👍
Hi MB212. I just purchased one of these units. I have a 2011 e350 cabriolet. The dash looks a little different than the 212 coupe/sedan you filmed. Do you have a film that shows how to remove the head unit from the cabriolet? Appreciate your response. Thanks.
Hello, the theft protection has been activated on my W207. Would it still work? My radio is unusable and I'm looking for an alternative. So does the carplay necessarily need the radio?
No because when cable are attached to the unit is sitting in place really good. So far no sound whatsoever ☺️ You could probably use some adhesive or cable tie if you like to be 100% sure
riktigt bra video. har nämligen en 2011 w212 utan bluetooth till sterion original... vet du om detta funkar för att kunna spela musik via bluetooth utan fm sändare? eller finns det något annat alternativ för att kunna installera? mvh
Yess det fungerar utan fm sändare, när du kopplar in den här får du bluetooth, mig veterligen finns det inget annat som fungerar. Då du har en 2011 skulle jag gissa att ditt system är NTG 4.0 då kan du inte använda exakt samma enhet som mig men den har samma funktioner.

One of the few interior upgrades I need to do but love how informative these videos are
Car feels way more modern and still original that’s what I like with this. 👍

what did you do with your aux cable in the end?
@@swaagadohnn not connected to anything.
Same here no need to use it! Don’t really understand why it coming with the kit.
Sir I’m worried about the reverse camera coz it might not work? Also I use Bluetooth so if I install this would it still work? Thanks
@@johnparkerzabala yes. Both should work just fine
Thanks for this video, how you did fix the decoder, so it wont make any noise while driving?
Nice tutorial 👍👌
Great video but the white captions are hard to read. Maybe try yellow or orange?
I got you, when edit them on laptop is easy to read but when checking on phone is quite hard to read them. Need to try another color 👍
Great comment after you wrote this I used new text more easy to read 👍
great job
thank you again
great job ! did you later replace the tiny screen with something bigger ?

Wish there were a vid for the 216
