Lovely video! I just have a question, I am luckily ordering the exact same unit and I was just wondering how is the sound quality? Is it degraded in any way?
@@zerozerozero_0 I got mine and it works perfect but you end up losing some feature, dimming rearview mirror will not work, Change your slot won't work anymore(or as they call it secret compartment) , but I gotta tell you it gives you a whole new experience
Is it still working ? And how much was it please … I’ve had someone in Australia give me a quote for this exact system including installation so I’m keen to know how much it cost you. Cheers
Hey Jason, 2 quick ones. With the head unit, steering wheel controls etc is good, however, when I did mine I could not then change the clock in the dash. Can yours - might be worth an update if it can? 2nd. With the rear, the new air shocks, check the lines before doing a new shock, I did that and it ended up being a perished air line.
Thanks for the tip! Yes my friend and previous owner noted the workshop he used to fit the new bags did say to keep an eye on some of the air lines! I actually haven’t tried setting the clock via the wheel or anything yet, so that’s a good shout. I believe I can adjust the clock using the scan tool I reviewed recently (well, it was an hour out of whack and I turned on DST/BST and it changed time).
This is exactly what I'd like to put in my E Class ('54 plate). But I definitely do not have the skills (or time) to install. Do you do installs?...or Can you recommend anyone?
Lovely video! Can you do a video of your trunk? I just bought a combi(universal) but half my trunk is empty so I don’t know where to place things. My fire extinguisher just slides from one way to another. Also about the emergency wheel. Do you have it? I don’t have one and have no idea what to buy. Also the shock absorbers in your truck are they gas or hydraulic? I was told that they are hydraulic but were really expensive and that it would be better not to change them. The DPF of the car was sold, the cd changer and wheel and the electric pump and they pretty much fucked me over with this purchase as I have given 1000€ more than what they told me in repairs and now I even have to change the whole front suspension system… but the cart is pretty and really comfortable. It’s my first car and damn so expensive 😅 but I really wanted it haha Edit: does the back spitter work for you? Mine is not working and I don’t see any leaks. I shoved a needle in it but nothing happened
Heya! I am about to go throught the same deal and the seller product page says that I need the Optical decoder that costs 70 bucks, but I didnt see you get that or install it?
Thanks a bunch! You saved me 70 bucks. I just fitted mine yesterday. The main pain in the rear is running that thick harness from the back to the unit. Also, the unit supports carplay, you don't need to use any of those suspicious apps.
I believe he connected using the optical interface, which does connect up to the factory (premium systems) amp. Factory sub control, however, is lost: my understanding is that it is fed all frequencies- maybe one can utilze a crossover to resolve? Fader functions, from what I've read, are also lost. I'm holding off on doing all this for these reasons: I'd prefer to do what Amazing Road TV did, but am unable to find an HU with true Line Out.
@@TyredFormat what works without internet? navigation and radio only? I'm asking mostly because I intend to get one but I definitely don't want to use hotspot all the time.
@@BewbathanMuffingss most of it works without. I used it for CarPlay, which is an extension of your phone screen anyway so your phone uses its own data there
5:52 Holy crap. The carnage!!! I don’t think I could do this.

@@saadelamine622 thanks bro, sucks i dont really want to lose the secret compartment
@@zerozerozero_0 its not that you lose it, it's just no longer powered you can still get it up manually
Do you need that long cord if you have a Harmon Kardon sounds system? Doesn’t use a fiber optic box???
Is it still working ? And how much was it please … I’ve had someone in Australia give me a quote for this exact system including installation so I’m keen to know how much it cost you. Cheers
Show where that sound system setting is in the full review!

I want to ask if the central speaker works after installation of android head unit? Nice vid so!
Please let me know how you got the b and c pillar trim off I’m currently 3/4s gutted
Will this fit my 2004 e320 base model does it come with the bracket

You ran through all of the disassembly of your car but neglected to show your wire hookups? Wow….

Did you not use the fiber optic decoder? 😮

With this era of Mercedes the time is set in the HU which inturn changes the clock in the cluster so you might lose the function if you change the HU.
@@liamcinq what is HU? Also my was never changed but between the navi and the hub there are something like 5 hours difference when synchronising
@@va_bg
HU = head unit or infotainment.
What if you own a W211 but not a digital OEM HU, I have the basic one with the CD and Radio functions only.
This is exactly what I'd like to put in my E Class ('54 plate). But I definitely do not have the skills (or time) to install. Do you do installs?...or Can you recommend anyone?
I could install where are you based?
Hello.. what’s the name of this android product?! Can I still get one please?
Heya! Have you ordered separate the cable fron back to the unit or IT is included ? Thx for eventualy answers
Hello, excellent video, congratulations, you managed to get the info on the original instrument "hu" on w211: radio frequency etc.
Does it have camera for parking as well?
On the website it shows you can get camera for free..
Cheers mate
Yeah I’ve thrown the camera in now too!
Can you make the video about camera installation as well?
@@TyredFormat can you help me?

Welches Kabel Satz hast du denn da gekauft.
Did you ever review this?

😂

Is it possible to add an underseat subwoofer to that android system?
Pretty much any unit can feed an external amp for subs. Where you mount depends on space.
Does bluetooth still work?
Mit dem Kabel funktioniert das HARMAN KARDON System nicht.
Heya!
I am about to go throught the same deal and the seller product page says that I need the Optical decoder that costs 70 bucks, but I didnt see you get that or install it?
Mine had a loom that ran all the way to the boot but didn’t need the decoder if I recall correctly.

@@RobertMihai05 ordered it separately. When you scroll down on the product page, the seller offers the cable as well, just click on the image.

Is it compatible when I have an iPhone since it's android ?
I have an iPhone and it worked just fine
steering wheel > model ?
Does not work with lwl cable cars
You did not show how you fitted the front connections. Shaky and unclear of the connections
do you always need internet to use its functions? and if so, how do you get it?
You do not. But it connects via WiFi to a hotspot.

@@TyredFormat I've heard about it yeah. For android its android auto. seems like a nice upgrade.
