So I have had this installed for almost a month and I have been waiting to find an issue. However, I have found none. It works perfectly as if it was factory installed. Straight Plug and play for old unit. As long as you follow the instructions, connection is easy. The CarPlay starts up on its own every time and quickly too. As I said, I can’t fault it. I fitted an aftermarket camera which also worked 1st time. So far, no issues at all. Great product at a good price. Many thanks!
Great item easy to fit nice clear instructions from seller how to set up
I bought this for my 13 plate A180. Plugged it into the glove box slot, and had it up and running within 5 minutes. Linked it to my iPhone and had Apple CarPlay running in no time.
I downloaded an app called Radio Player for listening to DAB stations and so far it has run smoothly. I can’t really fault this at all. Works with the maps on my iPhone seamlessly. Well worth the money.
What can I say, and amazing product breathed a new lease of life into an old car.
Had some issues getting the bluetooth to pair at first but then realised you need to pair the car to the Box, but using the phone dialog not the media dialog.
(Originally 5* but have had to now downgrade due to a glitch that I had read about but had not happened to me until recently.
Every now and then it does not connect to Android auto this is simply fixed by removing and reinserting the unit which luckily I can do from the driver seat as it is located driver side of the glove box.)
This tech has bought my 9 year old car up to date. The best thing is that you can fit it and use it within minutes without removing any of the dash. I mainly wanted it to update the useless Becker Sat Nav system which I never used so relied on my phone. Now I can use Google maps or Waze etc with my phone in my pocket. I have also had a little play round and have managed to still use the other Merc functions, such as the Radio and even the Phone, this obviously removes sound from the Sat Nav function though this is fine if you do not need the turn by turn prompts and only need a visual.
The only negatives is that if you use the phone function from Android Auto people have said it sounds a bit echoey but bringing the volume down helps. The other is that the auto day/dark function does not work on the maps but I’m not sure if this is a Carplay issue rather than the unit.
On the whole the advantages outweigh some minor Niggles hence 5*
I have not tested all the features such as reversing camera or Mirroring as I don’t use them
I plugged this unit in? Connected my phone via Bluetooth, and we were up and running. Only issue I had was getting the sound to work, but when I read the manual properly, I just had to connect this new unit to the cars Bluetooth (I was connecting my phone by mistake). Now both my IPhone and the car connect to the new box and it works perfectly. I will be getting another one for my other car, although that will be a more complicated install as It doesn’t have the slot for the Mercedes Satnav.
If you have the slot, and the correct NTG, just buy this and be impressed.
Great product, been working perfectly for a month now. Long may it continue
Setting up wireless on android is painful. You have to connect to the WiFi that doesn’t support Internet so then ure phone is offline I may have missed something I don’t know but if I connect wireless then I have no Internet so its pointless. That being said I always plug my phone into usb anyway to charge it so I just run the USB from my glove box and connect that way it works straight away upon start up and is very good
I bought this so that I could have Carplay in my 2012 SLK. It fits into the Becker Sat Nav slot in the glove compartment and as a result of installing this, I can now take my pick from Apple maps, Google maps or Waze for navigation rather than the out of date and expensive to update Becker unit.
On successful installation, everything can be operated from the centre console joystick and steering wheel controls, so really a great piece of kit overall.
The installation instructions that came with it weren’t that great, but I somehow managed to figure it all out relatively quickly. The upgrade is definitely worth it!
A little bit tricky to set up for me, don’t be like me trying to get it working without following the instructions , works well, good for the price and arrived on time
Product arrived on time and took less than 10 minutes to install. Remember er to select device from Bluetooth devices to get sound. Overall great device and well worth money to upgrade basic MB audio
