  • In this video, I show you how I install a large android screen on the 2016 Mercedes-Benz C300 W205 project car. This should be the same process for a C300, C45, C63 and I think GLC.

    I ordered the unit from DMP after watching your installation video. The unit arrived last Friday and I installed it on Saturday. Everything is up and running, including Apple CarPlay. Thanks very much for your great video and the prompt tech support from Steven of DMP. Cheers.

      Hey flex - great video. I noticed you unscrewed the center glove box and slid the wires under it. Is there any risk to this since screwing it back in would press down on the wires? Thought I’d ask!

Loving your videos mate, already looking to get the puddle lights and upgrade the ambient lighting and your vids make it so clear on what to do and where to buy from. Stay safe!

    Hey Flexx, thanks for the video!
    A few comments.
    1. Can this unit allow multipoint Bluetooth so i can receive calls from either phone?
    2. When running the GPS lead across the pillar it should be run under the pillar airbag so it does not interfere if it is deployed.
    3. Any plans to fit a 360degree bird view camera (utilising factory reverse cam)
    Keep up the great work.
