E class W210 ALPINE hi-fi upgrade
I have an Alpine unit CDA 9831R and associated 6-disc changer which I am considering fitting to my car.
It is not essential to me that I have the display coming through on the dash (as per the Audio 10 fitted) to show that I am on a certain radio station or CD track.
But can this be retained without costing a fortune.
I may leave the install in the car when I decide to sell it so it may be a good idea to retain this??
Any advice on how to fit it. I have fitted hi-fis to many of my own cars over the years but what do I need to obtain to retain the steering controls, etc.
I assume the head unit will connect straight to the MB cables that attach to the Audio 10??
Would I need a mod for connecting to the steering wheel - I hear that many Mercs use Alpine derived units so would the steering controls plug into the rear?
Any help or links would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
