birdsallpl Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I have just purchased an E250 CDI blue efficiency estate Aventgarde on a 12 plate. I'm not sure the model reference No. When I bought it I was told it did not have Sat Nav. Nav appears on the screen selection. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this retrofitted and working please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deker Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 These guys can probably do it but I retro fitted Command to my c class (w203) and it was nowhere near as good as the aftermarket Pioneer\Kenwood head units available so I ended up going that route and putting the Command unit back on eBay, the sound was much better from the aftermarket unit too.

Richard 1980 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I've got the becker add on in my C Class Coupe. Bought it off eBay for about £250 new. Just plugged it into slot in the glovebox and it took about 2 minutes for it to load up first time around. Easy! It works great aswell no issues whatsoever.

They are ok , but I tend to use my iPhone app. Nav pilot You need to get a Becker unit as they car is incomplete without it Neil Cambridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard 1980 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 If you go for the upgrade it will make a nice cappuccino!! Not much else really. Does traffic updates and re-routes your journey where needed which is quite useful. Allows you to press voice button on steering wheel so you can verbally put your destination in, although I never use this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happypig Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Becker units can be bought through amazon I think... Direct from Becker at about half price... Don't pay dealer prices.... Father in law has just bought one. If you need more info pm and I'll ask him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
