Thank you for watching!
You shouldn’t scream at birds. They were here first! Nice video.
Nice install. My 2016 E400 W212 with NTG5s1 has the same interior. However, I installed the Android 10.5 Touch Screen and man its soooo much better. Surprize the owner of that vehicle didn't opt for that instead.
Joe A The replacement screens have come a very long way in recent years. We find ourselves doing them more and more often. I offer the solution to our customers however in this case our customer wanted to keep the car with original parts (screen etc) it was also an E400 and extremely clean 👌🏽
The Fitting Bay Best part of the Android 10.5 Touch screen it was all plug and play retaining original OEM screen application with option to switch to Android applications at a touch.
I’d rather have apple car play man lol
In my opinion this is way cleaner than that metro pcs tablet.
Awesome video, best I’ve seen and it’s finally convinced me to buy. Which unit do you recommend please?
we 3 Thank you 😊

I now see a difference in your video, UCI means media interface. So when activating AUX, you can no longer use the media interface, right ?
Hello brother
I have E350 2012 also I have the same Carplay unit, my question is which DIP switch On??
Garcia Charles Gonzalez Elizabeth Moore Timothy
Did you have to run a AUX cable from car play module to arm rest or did changing the setting in engineering mode overcome that ? Thanks
Can you please confirm this ?
Nice description of the installation. I have one of these on the way for my 2014 w204. I'm curious as to why the microphone is needed, why can't you tap into the existing microphone? Also, instead of have the USB cable from the can hanging out under your dash, do you think it's possible to use the existing USB outlet in the compartment, between the seats, where the media plug is located?
Hey mate, can you just confirm that you didn’t need to connect anything into the glovebox and accessing the AUX in settings made it work? Just don’t want to have to remove all no the centre console to run an audio cable in there as others have?
Sound has to come from Aux or USB with adaptor. There's no two ways about it. AUX gives the best sound IMO
do you have any Videos of the NAVIGATION update? I have w212 2010 thnx...
I have a E 250 w212 from 2011. Does it work with it? thanks a lot!
Yes it will
Thank you so much for your efforts done for this review. I have a 2013 Mercedes SL and I would love to install this kit but I'm concerned about the OEM look of the car. Any clues on how to fix the usb and aux cables without it sticking out?
flush mount :)
Hey i own a W212 from 2010 and it had an Audio 50 Aps unit. Im new with the car an was wondering if the ntg is the same. And if you can do this same upgrade to that unit
That one might be NTG 4.0 but if you fill out contact form on www.shoptfb.com I can confirm
Hi, do you offer this fixing service to install apple car play on same w212? Thank you.
Yes we do :) visit www.aesonline.com.au
Anyone experiencing a blank screen issue with this whenever it tries to switch CarPlay? I’m noticing this every time the vehicle is park outside when it’s hot.
I recently got a new iPhone 13 and now I always have problems connecting to CarPlay and always have to hold the command button and reset the system to get music and Siri to work. It worked flawlessly with my iPhone 8. I tried factory resetting and forgetting the Bluetooth and no changes. Any recommendations?.
Tried to install that on c207 coupe 2014. Absolutely nowhere to put wire harness. Crazy wasted money and time. :(
Great video. What is that MOST option you disabled in engineering mode. Any idea what MOST stands for?
Thanks! MOSTBUS it’s optical communications network in the car :)
@@TheFittingBay okay. My car has NTG5, so the engineering menu is different. How do I enable aux?
Tech and Toys ! NTG5 needs to be coded
@@TheFittingBay oh.. so anyway I can do that? How difficult is it?
Tech and Toys ! what car is it?
And using the iphone cable with AMI and selecting media interface on MB, can we have the audio from carplay ?
Hey, I just installed one of these and the screen turns black when I switch to the interface. My phone detects android auto when I plug it in, the audio works from my phone, and it seems like the menu options work when I randomly use the knob. The original interface works fine but I can't see the android auto when I switch. Any idea what might be causing this? Thanks in advance. 😁
Where did you buy it from?
@@russianfuqq that’s a different module to ours and those ones always have issues mate contact the supplier
How was the USB connection handled in this install? Does the USB in the center console work as a passthrough?
We ran the new CarPlay USB to the same position in the Glovebox as the genuine USB will not work as a passthrough it is a music interface.
Does this work with the Audio 20 unit (small screen without navigation)?
Yep :) as long as it’s NTG 4.0/4.5/4.7
Hey, just curious, if you receive a phone call, and you were listening to the radio or something in the oem system, does carplay pop up, and does the audio work?
Any upgrade for w212 its a 2011 e250 with NTG4.0 ??
Yep we have a NTG 4.0 system on www.shoptfb.com
Can you watch movies or music videos on UA-cam? Like mirror link
fitim kukaj Yep you can mirror IOS and android devices.
Awesome! does the factory USB port in the center console work or does a usb have to come from the glove box?
Need to add a new one :)
Great video. I’m going to use this guide to install a NTG4.0 unit. Thank you!
Did you end up doing the install ? How did it go ?
thanks for this, it would be good to see where exactly you mounted the unit behind the glovebox. How did you attached it? Did you use doublesided tape?
Double sided and zip ties to prevent rattles :)
wat about a 2013 mercedes a class, could you do the same thing on them too?
//is it even possible to?
@@aryanbustakey4630 yep :)
Hello, why you dismoned this compartment at 4:30 minute?
The glove box? To mount module there.
@@TheFittingBay yes, I didn't know how to call it in english. :D Where is the USB cable installed? Is it necessary to add a new one, or can it be connected to the USB that comes with the car?
Pedro Futuro we put it in the centre console with the genuine USB / music interface. Yep need to add a new USB!
Is it possible to put on a 2010 years Mercedes E-Class W212 ? Thanks
Aleksandar Smoljanic yep :) that car should have NTG 4.5
@@TheFittingBay is also for ntg 4.0 units
Jānis Liepiņš different module for 4.0
Can I use voice to response to messages? Am I able to listen to my factory SiriusXM radio while this unit is enabled through aux?
can you pleasse do it for me how much
Hi! Would this work on a car with factory Bang & Olufsen audio system? Is there any difference in sound quality after installing this kit? (2014 E63 AMG S)
No difference in quality and completely compatible!
How can I buy this ? I live in Sweden .

I wonder if this would work for an e63s that has the 360 degree camera system rather than just a front/rear camera?
NewShockerGuy Yep 👍🏽
@@TheFittingBay How do the other two cameras get hooked up?
NewShockerGuy Option cameras and need to be installed front or rear
@@TheFittingBay what I'm saying is I have an e63s with 4 cameras. Already installed from the factory. Front camera under emblem, two cameras on side view mirrors, and a rear camera. How would that all work with this module since it only has two camera inputs?
NewShockerGuy the genuine cameras work as normal. There’s no extra plugs for the factory cameras. These inputs are extra inputs on top of the system as it is. So in your case they get taped up and put away. The genuine camera system will continue to work as normal. If you’re in CarPlay and select R the camera system will come up. If you’re in CarPlay and try to activate the camera system with a button it will not work you’ll need to switch back to OEM screen. Hope that makes sense :)
Is the sound quality on this install digital or analogue?
If it's optic fibre it will be digital regardless because the Aux port converts analogue back to digital sound.
Will this support E200D
Yep! Just need to confirm the NTG system
how can i install u will assist.?

Hi, I've been following this video another video very closely and am pretty sure I've done exactly the same. However, I have no sound on both my Command system and Carplay System. I think it may just be a loose connection - which cable is for the sound? Is it the optical lines?
PLEASE tell me you you found a solution?! I’ve been struggling with this problem the WHOLE day
Здравствуйте, где заказать для команда 4,5-4, 7
Would this work on an a class 2015 shape
Sure will just need to confirm the NTG system
Hi, question about the aux, ive done the settings, but when i connect the 3.5 jack adapter it still doesn’t play through the aux, I don’t have the CarPlay connected, i try just to play something before i start fitting the unit , is that suppose to work for example to play from a ipod? Or you just need to switch it on and don’t plug nothing and it will work? Thank you
I mean i can just plug the adapter like the audi as you said , and no aux cable and will work? Because from ipod I can’t make it play
@@Smart.Tuning hmm depends on the cable you’re using. With the module you can turn it on and it’ll work it’s pinned out in the quad lock
@@TheFittingBay do you have an email address where I could show you a picture with the cable i got please?
@@Smart.Tuning info@aesonline.com.au
Can you explain why you remove the microphone (that on the roof)?
Pedro Futuro To put the aftermarket mic in there to conceal it.
@@TheFittingBay Can't use the microphone that is already installed in the car (original)?
Pedro Futuro Factory mic is still used for phone cake etc the external mic picks up voice controls commands :)
@@TheFittingBay Perfect! Last question: the phone calls are made on the NTG interface (original mic) or on the carplay/android auto interface (new mic)?
Pedro Futuro Calls can be made on either system. And answered on the steering wheel via phone button ;)
you make it look easy!
Can this work on a 2014 e63amg
Yep :) just need to confirm the NTG system
@@TheFittingBayare there separate hardware modules for NTG 4.5 and 4.7? Or will one module support both?
Dus it work on a e klasse 2009 w207 ?
If it has NTG 4.0, yes
$799 really
Great install and description, does this head unit have rca out puts for amps and a sub out. Thankyou
Hi . My audio works only with „external audio“ not with internal… is it ok or i need to change and how to do that? And harman cardon setup didnt works with carplay modul..
