Having just completed this job myself I will say that this video was extremely helpful. I did find that in order to get the harness and plug out of the way of the head unit I had to cut a roughly 1"X2" piece of plastic out of the part that separates the radio from the climate control section and slide the plug under that so it sits behind the CCU. Also, another tip left out is that in order to re-seat the ends of the rubber wire tube at the top of the tailgate you have to remove the plastic endpieces from the car side (there are two small release tabs with arrows on the front you can see if you look closely). Once you pull them all the way out of the car and tailgate fitting them is easy and then you just push them back into the holes until the lock in again. If you don't removed them you will never get that rubber to seat around the edge again.
Wouldn’t worry about that. The airbag is in the pillar in front of where you tuck the wire so I don’t think it would interfere at all with the deployment of it
Great video - love the easy routing. I did want to mention that the graphic at around 2:00 mentions that 2008-2015 GLK head units are NTG4.5. However 2008-2012 are NTG4.0. The dash and head unit are quite different than the NTG4.5 unit / dash in your video.
I bought the unit installed it works great but not able to push radio back in, it stop at about half inch, can't go anymore in and it seems the aftermath plug is stopping the radio . Any idea of what to do? Thanks Gus
@@CarsGadget Did that many times and still would not work. The only solution was to cut some of the plastic between radio compartment and ac control and push the huge plug underneath and that solved the problem. Spent hours but that was the only solution and it worked. Thank you for answering
There's tow clips that you need to take him up and then push the radio inside , I ran into this too, I was working in the dark until I realized that it interfered from behind and it didn't sit well with me, it took me a while , Two such hooks that need to be lifted up, when you insert the radio they fall and catch it, exactly where you put the screws back, if it is lifted the radio cannot be pushed back

Hello sir , no need to connect 12v to reverse bulb ?
Thank you, I just installed mine
He removed the trunk handle but what if we have a power trunk… will replacing this affect the button to activate the power open feature?
Is your site down? Wanted to purchase a backup cam for my 2014 GLK
Would this work for a 2010 GLK350?
I was quoted 1500 to install a back up camera on my 2014 glk... there has to a cheaper option
Does it affect the add-on Map Pilot (installed in the glove compartment)?
I bought the unit installed it works great but not able to push radio back in, it stop at about half inch, can't go anymore in and it seems the aftermath plug is stopping the radio .
Any idea of what to do?

You need to put back in place the radio brackets that were held by 2 screws on top of the radio behind air vents

@@guszanfardino5188 you need to transfer fiber optic cable (2 Orange wires) from original connector to the provided connector.
Thanks
What mode you configure the command center.
Tengo un mercedes GLK350 2013 que cámara debo comprar que sea compatible con mi auto
Женя, по русски можно такой же ролик?
Does anyone know how to put the radio back into the dash? This video skips that portion.

poor install no solder connections, cheap just twist wires together and tape.
No? Doesn't need soldering, I wouldn't even recommend soldering for car wiring but you do you 😊
